How to start my car with my starter completely dead?
I have a 2007 Honda Civic. I'm sure my starter is completely dead or shot. I just need to start it one more time to get it up to the mechanic. Any tricks or ideas to get it going? I already tried a jump last night to no success. Please let me know!
If it has a manual transmission then you can push start it. If not, try banging on the starter motor with a hammer and then see if it will start. Try it several times.
Tap on the starter with a pipe or hammer to shock it, sometimes it works.
Lol. I already know I can't I'm looking for some one to tell me I CAN, and HOW!
You can't
If it's manual trans, you can push start it. Are you sure it's the starter, and not the starter relay, or a bad wire or cable? Try jumping from pos of battery straight to the big lug on starter relay (the one from which the cable runs to starter). If this won't work, try straight from battery to the lug on starter motor where the fat red cable connects -- to do these jumps, you must have very heavy wire, such as a jumper cable.
Get a new battery. I don't see where a starter on a 2007 car should be bad already. I drive a 1997 Chevy cavalier that still has the original starter in it. Your car will not even start when you have a bad battery.
- 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
- Roughly how much could I get from selling my hybrid car with a dead hybrid battery? I have a 2007 Honda Civic Hybrid with about 175k miles. I'm the second owner and there's nothing else wrong with it besides the dead hybrid battery. The battery is very expensive to replace and it's honestly just more of a financially smart decision to sell it rather than spending about 2,000 on a new battery. I just want to know what is a decent price to let it go for considering the hybrid battery is dead ultimately making it useless until replaced.
- My 2008 Honda Civic is completely dead. What could be wrong? It just got a new battery this past December and brake pads this past week. My wife went to go somewhere and its completely dead… Even power locks don't work. What could be wrong?
