hansomm Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 maybe you need a new starter? Check the voltage going to the started maybe the solenoid isn't engaging the gear to push out and spin the starter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suba_GL_87 Posted January 8, 2012 Author Share Posted January 8, 2012 motor starter is passed. you mean switch stater (ignition switch) maybe you need a new starter? Check the voltage going to the started maybe the solenoid isn't engaging the gear to push out and spin the starter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeolaPA Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 I don't understand your english very well, but the starter has a switch inside that has a copper bar that can get burnt. It can cause the starter not to work all the time. It can be replaced if you can remove your starter and take it apart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cougar Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 The most common troubles that cause a starter problem is bad battery connections, faulty inhibit or safety switch, or dirty starter solenoid contacts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooster2 Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 The most common troubles that cause a starter problem is bad battery connections, faulty inhibit or safety switch, or dirty starter solenoid contacts. Or simply just need a new starter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
porcupine73 Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 If it won't crank, and the problem is with the starter, sometimes if you give the starter a little love tap with a small hammer that will coax it into working. But if that works then it does mean the starter needs servicing or replacement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Whale Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 Most likely, it's the starter solenoid contacts and plunger...these can be purchased as a kit on eBay. It's really no more difficult to fix this than it is to swap in a new starter, but a lot less expensive; once it's out, part replacement is very simple.

EVOthis Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 If it happens to not be the starter. I have seen the battery cables get pretty corroded on these things with high mileage/age. Usually when you wiggle the cable it can intermittently make good contact. you can cut back the insulation a tad on the negative cable and the positive to see if you notice any green corrosion. might be something to look at.
