My craftsman variable speed rotary tool won't power on?

My craftsman variable speed rotary tool won't power on. It is model 572-611200. I have removed and re-seated both brushes but it still won't turn on. Any suggestions as to where I can get it repaired or repair it myself?

This happened to mine right after I had dropped the box. I think it has something to do with the circuitry for the variable speed feature. Possibly the resistor/s were damaged by the jolt? just speculating and hoping someone who knows can provide suggestion. thanks

Mine has just done the same thing. I checked the brushes too and it is still not working. Have you figured out what the problem was?
