It is a known issue on that light and is battery related.

    The batteries have smart charging technology that is computer chip controlled. If you have tried different batteries and the floodlight still flashes on and off, then the light is faulty. The LED Module has electronic controls and management. The module may have failed. Take it to a Milwaukee service centre for testing. You may be able to get the LED Module on eBay but you are replacing without diagnostics.

    This one?

    It is expensive enough to be worth repairing!

    How do I get the M18 light to turn off it stays on all The time

    If it's the white work light ? Has someone worked on it recently ? Does the work light go off when pulling trigger? Are the forward and reverse switched ? It could be the blk and red wires on the brush card assembly are switched.

    My M18 Drill has an LED Light that does shut off when I let go of trigger.

    That's the way the LED is supposed to operate. It comes on when you activate the trigger, and shuts off 10-seconds after you let go. It's a feature listed in the manual. Unfortunately, some of them seem to be staying on permanently, which does drain the battery, and no one seems to have a solution. Obviously, this is a flaw in the electronics governing the LED. Milwaukee should fix them for free.

    I have the m18 impact driver and i doesnt seem to be spinning as quickly and doesnt have the same power as when i bought it. it still works but not even close to the same.

    The only reason a battery powered device slows down is that it's not getting the appropriate voltage from the battery. Your m18 has a lithium-ion battery that when topped off, and for what should be a good long work-period, deliver 18vdc to the motor. Unfortunately, some of the earlier m18 batteries have had some issues and are not fully charging. Some of this is due to improper charging, over heating, storage problems and physical damage.

    Milwaukee utilizes a "smart battery" Digital Management System to monitor the "draw" on the battery to keep the user from frying the motor or overtaxing the battery. How hard to you use the tools...perhaps you should trade the stock compact versions for the XC (extra capacity) versions.

    You don't say how long you've had these tools, but if you'll go back to the retailer you bought them from, you may be able to get replacement batteries there. Otherwise, check out the Milwaukee website. I think they came out with M18 XC "RED LITHIUM". I think this might be a replacement.

    Nonetheless, Milwaukee offers a 2 year warranty on their batteries, so contact your retailer or Milwaukee directly.
