When you turn the key to start your vehicle, the starter solenoid that is mounted to the starter engages the flex plate, which in turn forces the engine to rotate. Once the engine is fully powered and turning, the starter motor is disengaged.\n \n\nLike most other types of electric motors, your starter motor will use magnets to create a field of spin as well as brushes to keep the starter rotating in a single direction. Generally, if think you have a faulty starter then the problem will likely be an internal failure or damage at the brushes or within the solenoid. It could possibly be an armature that\u2019s bent or caught as well. In many cases you may need a starter removal and new motor to replace it, or your Lube Mobile mechanic may be able to replace a faulty part instead.<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n\n                \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wpr-accordion-item-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button class=\"wpr-acc-button\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"wpr-acc-item-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"wpr-title-icon\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"wpr-acc-title-text\">How will I know if I need a new starter motor?<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"wpr-toggle-icon wpr-ti-close\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-caret-down\" viewBox=\"0 0 320 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M31.3 192h257.3c17.8 0 26.7 21.5 14.1 34.1L174.1 354.8c-7.8 7.8-20.5 7.8-28.3 0L17.2 226.1C4.6 213.5 13.5 192 31.3 192z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"wpr-toggle-icon wpr-ti-open\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-caret-up\" viewBox=\"0 0 320 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M288.662 352H31.338c-17.818 0-26.741-21.543-14.142-34.142l128.662-128.662c7.81-7.81 20.474-7.81 28.284 0l128.662 128.662c12.6 12.599 3.676 34.142-14.142 34.142z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wpr-acc-panel\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wpr-acc-panel-content\">If you can hear a clicking sound when you turn your ignition and\/or your engine doesn\u2019t fire into life, then you may have an issue with your vehicle\u2019s starter motor.

Check the Battery and Connections\n\n\u2022 Make sure the battery is fully charged and healthy\n\n\u2022 Inspect battery terminals and starter cables for corrosion or loose connections\n\n\u2022 Poor connections can mimic starter motor failure\n \n\n2. Listen for Common Starter Motor Symptoms\n\n\u2022 Clicking sound when turning the key\n\n\u2022 Slow cranking\n\n\u2022 No crank at all These symptoms can also indicate battery or alternator issues.\n \n\n3.

Generally, the length of time is determined by how easily your starter motor can be accessed by the mechanic, with some makes and models in smaller cars posing slightly more of a challenge.\n \nThe stater motor is connected to the flywheel, or flex plate, and is responsible for turning it. When you turn the key in the ignition to start your vehicle, the starter solenoid that is mounted to the starter triggers the starter\u2019s operation. There is a little gear that engages the flex plate, which in turn forces the engine to rotate. That\u2019s the end of the starter motor\u2019s part of your vehicle operation. Once the engine is fully powered and turning then the starter motor is disengaged.\n \nA faulty starter motor will prevent you from being able to fire up your car, so if you are experiencing anything that we\u2019ve just noted then it\u2019s a good idea to arrange a mechanic to take a look sooner rather than later.<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n\n                            <\/div>\n        \t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Starter Motor Services Starter Motor Services We can test and replace your car&#8217;s Starter Motor at a time and place to suit you.

What does a starter motor do and how does it work? Your starter motor is an electric motor responsible for kick-starting your engine\u2019s internal combustion. The starter motor is connected to the flywheel, or flex plate, and is responsible for turning it. When you turn the key to start your vehicle, the starter solenoid that is mounted to the starter engages the flex plate, which in turn forces the engine to rotate. Once the engine is fully powered and turning, the starter motor is disengaged. Like most other types of electric motors, your starter motor will use magnets to create a field of spin as well as brushes to keep the starter rotating in a single direction. Generally, if think you have a faulty starter then the problem will likely be an internal failure or damage at the brushes or within the solenoid. It could possibly be an armature that\u2019s bent or caught as well. In many cases you may need a starter removal and new motor to replace it, or your Lube Mobile mechanic may be able to replace a faulty part instead. How will I know if I need a new starter motor? If you can hear a clicking sound when you turn your ignition and\/or your engine doesn\u2019t fire into life, then you may have an issue with your vehicle\u2019s starter motor. If there is a spinning noise but the engine doesn\u2019t turn over then it may be that the flywheel is failing to engage, or if you can turn the engine over but it fails to run or \u2018kicks out\u2019, then your starter motor will need inspection. \u2022 Here are some more signs of a failing starter motor: \u2022 Unusual noises: Grinding or clicking sounds during ignition attempts. \u2022 Engine not starting: The engine fails to turn over despite a charged battery. \u2022 Intermittent starting issues: The vehicle starts inconsistently, sometimes requiring multiple attempts. \u2022 Electrical smoke: Overheating of the starter motor can produce smoke. How do you test a starter motor? Testing a starter motor involves checking the battery, inspecting electrical connections, and performing basic voltage or continuity tests to confirm whether the issue is with the starter or another part of the starting system. How to Test a Starter Motor 1. Check the Battery and Connections \u2022 Make sure the battery is fully charged and healthy \u2022 Inspect battery terminals and starter cables for corrosion or loose connections \u2022 Poor connections can mimic starter motor failure 2. Listen for Common Starter Motor Symptoms \u2022 Clicking sound when turning the key \u2022 Slow cranking \u2022 No crank at all These symptoms can also indicate battery or alternator issues. 3. Perform a Voltage Test \u2022 Use a multimetre to measure voltage at the starter while cranking \u2022 Low voltage may point to wiring problems or a failing starter motor 4. Test the Starter Solenoid \u2022 Set your multimetre to continuity mode \u2022 Touch one lead to the solenoid\u2019s S terminal and the other to the housing \u2022 A beep indicates the solenoid is functioning correctly 5.
