I opened the chuck all the way and now it won't close. I tried to
force it with channel locks and now it won't turn in any direction.
Is there any way to fix this? Has anyone had this problem?
thanks

Maybe the screw is loose that holds it to the drill shaft, and is
jamming it up. I've seen that happen. Otherwise I dont know what to
say except replace it. Maybe a soaking wiht WD40 ???
I am assuming its a keyless chuck, and those things re really made
cheaply.

Maybe try gently tapping on the jaws. One of them might be stuck.

If it jams, force it. If it breaks...

And if that doesn't work, not so gently. Give it a medium whack, the
jaws or the bigger part that holds them.
