    I'm assuming the laser is turned on? These saws have a twin line laser, if neither line works and they are supplied by only one laser it's got to be either the switch, the power supply to it or the laser has burnt out. If the twin lines are provided by two separate lasers, unlikely, then it has to be the switch or the power to the switch. No idea what you've already checked as your post is not exactly a mine of information.

    Welcome to the forum, hopefully we'll be able to help you resolve the problem, I know a few guys on here have this saw.

    Mine carked it and I haven't bothered trying to fix it either mainly because the adjustments are a really big & proper pain in the neck. Using a zero clearance sub fence is at least as good for cutting flat work but is no good for round stuff or odd shaped stuff. Honestly, I have not missed it one bit. If the Bosch used the shadow system that Dewalt?? uses I would fix it as that is way better than a laser.

    Big thank you to aldav and chris and all you generous people on this site. I'm still getting used to the idiosyncrasies. Cheers.
