Does anybody repair or rebuild battery saws? I have a GreenWorks and Ryobi's that need fixed, they are both good saws when they work. Thanks for any info.

Not worth rebuilding! Cost more than a new saw even IF you could get parts! They are intended as a "throw away" saw to conform to todays society of high waste generation! Sad but thats the way it goes!
What's wrong with the saws? Bearings at least should be standard part numbers.

If you are looking into ways to fix them yourself, Dean Doherty has a YouTube channel where he fixes electric power tools. Not sure if he ever fixed a chain saw on video, but it doesn't seem to be a mythical experience. If you can figure out what's wrong and the parts are available, it might be a nice project. Probably a lot easier than fixing a gas powered saw.
Verify switches and controls. If it gets into a motor, you are pretty much done due to cost. If you are doing it, maybe. The cost of parts and labor will make it too much. Even on a Stihl.
