Learn More About Starter
The starter is a high-torque electric motor responsible for turning the engine over to begin the combustion process. It temporarily engages with the flywheel to crank the engine at the necessary speed. Common signs of failure include a clicking noise when turning the key or a slow crank, which can be caused by worn internal components or solenoid failure.
