Starters - 6v

This is what starts the car. It usually quits the furthest place from home. To bench test a starter is tough, as they can work but are weak. In other words, it will work on the bench, but as soon as it has the drag of the engine on it, it won't. The way we test starters is in the car with a remote starter button (a push button with two long wires). Disconnect the battery. Hook up one of the wires to the big post that the battery cable is hooked to and the other wire to where the push-on wire is located. Now connect the battery back up and make sure the E-brake is on and the car is out of gear. Push the remote starter button. If the engine turns over the starter is good, and if it doesn't, it's bad. If you find the starter works with the remote starter but not with the key, call us. You might need a hard start relay or a new electrical part in the ignition switch. Some starters are sold on exchange.
