Fix a starter motor yourself cheap !

Brief video showing how to repair a starter motor with a solenoid fault for free to get you going or to completely replace the solenoid saving a huge amount over a new starter motor! Solenoid fault is the common cause of failure and is usually shown by the non operation of the starter when you turn the ignition to crank the engine and nothing happens bar maybe a click coming from the solenoid. please note you need to test the operation of your starter as I described using jump leads and a car battery to make sure the solenoid is the problem if your starter doesn't turn over nice and fast when you test it on the lower connection to the motor your problem lays in the motor itself possibly requiring a brush set replacement or complete motor over haul. a bit off topic for my subscribers I know unless you find yourself stranded in a vehicle that won't start with some basic tools it may save you a long walk or a wait to be rescued.
