Check for any debris or obstructions in the bit-changing mechanism. Ensure the bit cartridge is properly seated. Gently try to wiggle the bit holder to free it.

Screw holder not securing screws properly

Ensure the screw head is compatible with the screw holder's grip. Check for any damage to the screw holder mechanism.
