STARTER TEST
The starter test measures the amount of current needed to crank the
engine and provides the initial information to diagnose and/or further test
the starting system if necessary
Symptomatic Check before Proceeding:
Check all cables and connections.
Check the battery for corrosion and dirty terminals.
Check starter/solenoid for visual defects.
Check the ignition switch and any magnetic switches for
loose or bad wiring, loose mounting, or connections and
sticking contacts.
Check for starter/solenoid noise. The type of noise or the
lack thereof can help in diagnosing the problem.
Does the solenoid click, but the starter does not turn? Does
the starter turn, but not engage the flywheel? Is the starter
sluggish?
Note:
A remote starter switch (Part No. INN 3630) can be used to
bypass the ignition switch and crank the engine from under
the hood. This way the sounds of the starter can be heard.
