Nearly every Chauffeur, at one age or another, has heard his vehicle generate a horrific sound when cranking, lone to gallop as smooth-as-silk when started. It's not a question; it's a evil starter meeting. There are two parts to a starter meeting: the starter Engine and the starter solenoid. The offending culprit is normally the starter solenoid, and it can be a authentic expensive repair.
Instructions
1. Stand the hood and disconnect the battery. Allot the starter. On some models the starter is serviced under the hood, while on others, it is serviced under the vehicle. To fix the starter, spring from the clear battery cable from the battery. It leads directly to the starter.
2. Uplift the vehicle with a jack and position jack stands provided the starter is to be removed from below. Remove the fine battery cable from the starter Engine. The cable is bolted to the Engine to insure Sufficiently in fashion flows to spin the engine.
3. Remove the solenoid energizer wire. It is yet smaller than the battery cable, and in many cases simply unplugs. The solenoid is an integral chunk of the starter Engine. The solenoid pushes and pulls the starter propel gear into and absent of the substantial ring-gear that fundamentally spins the engine to begin it.
4. Remove the starter mounting bolts. Whether under the vehicle, be prepared to administer 20 pounds or amassed, depending on the mould of starter motor. Set it aside.
Test the starter. Mount the starter in a large vise. Using jumper cables, attach the ground cable from a battery to the starter body and a positive cable to the starter positive post, where the main battery cable attaches. Attach a jumper wire from the solenoid-activator connection. Carefully jumper this wire directly to the starter positive post. The starter should spin firmly, and the starter drive-gear forcefully extend.7. Examine the starter drive-gear teeth. They may show much less sign of wear than the ring-gear since they are much harder steel. Replace the starter assembly anyway. The problem is the solenoid--an electromagnet--is weak and is not driving the gear far enough into the ring-gear. This improper mesh creates grinding with just enough force to start the vehicle. Ultimately, this will completely fail.
5. Shine a flashlight into the starter mounting hole and examine the ring-gear teeth. They should not show any signs of significant wear, their edges should be sharp and crisp, and there should be no chips or discoloration. There should not be any appearance of freshly worn or ground metal. If there is, the transmission must be removed and the flywheel or ring-gear flex plate replaced.6.
