The starter solenoid works as a powerful electric relay. When activated, through the control terminal, the solenoid closes the electric circuit and sends the battery power to the starter motor. At the same time, the starter solenoid pushes the starter gear forward to mesh with thering gearof t...
it indicates that there is enough charge in the battery to activate the solenoid (which is the source of clicking noise), but not enough charge to power the starter. The starter motor requires
hot, mobile repair, wife's car refused to sporadically no start for me and of course starter died away from home. Already knowing the pinout on that relay allowed me to put 12v to the starter and all I got was a clicking solenoid confirmed by a parts house test, motor was burned out...
a rig to support the "Chuck magnet" mentioned earlier, then I'll wrap the magnet until I run out of wire. I will carefully place the magnet & solenoid into my rig, then I'll attach the wires into a light socket (carefully and precisely) to get 120V rather than a little 12V ...
