Should i replace my starter on 97 honda accord?
My car went out on me unexpectedly, tried to give it a jump it did nothing, when a mechanic finally arrived he switched my battery with another cars battery and he SAID it worked bt i still wasn't get power to crank the car up and only light on my dashboard that comes on is the "battery light " after an hour of confusion he told me a trick to jump start my car with a wire hanger he touched the starter core with one in of the hanger and then touched the Positive side of my battery with the other end of hanger, when i go to turn the key it finally started! Bt i'm still confused on what the problem might be non of my lights come on my bashboard and my gas meter even stopped working only thing thats still active is my radio and car charger? Does this seem like a major problem or is this minor i haven't drove the car since the wire hanger incident
If you can jump across the starter solonoid and it starts then it, s the solonoid that, s bad and not kicking the starter in! It also could be the ignition switch that, s bad also! But before getting into that i would change the solonoid first!
If the battery was "replaced" but still didn't start i would next move to the starter. It sounds like you replaced the starter so then i would think there's a wire that has shorted out. That you bypass with your trick. Letting the alternator do its job after ignition. Can you explain any more?
- Punctured tire replacement - can I replace only 1 tire - is it safe to replace the PUNCTURED tire only? My 2005 Honda Pilot rear left tire was punctured near the threshhold (ie - sidewall), but still usable. Thus the tire dealer patched it only. Should I replace that punctured tire only? Or should I replace the 2 tires on the same axle? Or even buy a whole set of 4 tires? I'm concerned about safety, and thus your best advice is very appreciated.
- Motorcycle starter over heated starter and only the solenoid clicked so i rebuilt the starter n tested it with a battery n it worked fine? Put it back in bike and again only the solenoid clicks… Is there a fuse for the starter or a relay i may have blown? 1988 honda hurricaine 1000F i'm ready to hang it up but the bike runs so good when it runs. i ran out of gas n kept trying to start it till battery was dead and that is how it got this way. Please and thank-you starter works fine when hooked up to a battery off the bike. what gives?
- I have a Honda GSV 190 mower engine with a broken starter rope and stud stuck in starter that I can't remove. Any ideas would be great When removing the nuts holding the recoil starter in place the nut on the front of the starter is stuck. When I try to remove it the whole stud come out of the engine. Leaving the engine cover stuck to the starter preventing me from replacing the rope. I have tried everything I can think of to remove it with no luck. Heres what it looks like. http://www.ereplacementparts.com/bolt-stud-h425mm-p-554740.html
- Do I need to replace my car starter? Hi, I need expert advice on my cars problem. I have a Honda Civic LXI 1996. I recently had its starter repaired. The problem now is that it always drains my battery. I did a test where in i disconnect my battery if I'm not using it. It works that way. But when I have the battery connected, even if I'm not using my car the battery is drained after a few days? What should I do?
