: more trouble than it's worth...
Take the top off and check the brushes. If they're worn out, the router will have probs starting/running. Replacement brushes are usually avail at your local elec supply house. Forget about having the router serviced/repaired professionally. For the cost of the service you can get a new router that's better than the skil you have now.
