  • If your starter is not working and want to test the motor only, make sure you put the positive terminal on the motor stud. If not then the motor will not start.

    Yes, & if you get a replacement starter these days, test it before installing. New don't mean good. Save you pulling it back off.

      ​@10minutefix question. Can I do this while it's still fully connected to the car??
      Every time I try to hook up the terminals to the battery. The I think I'm hearing the starter click.( till it kills the battery. )
      Checked all the fuses and relays all good.

    Most starters now have the solenoid as part of the body so even if your starter motor is good, you would need a complete starter assembly regardless. Good hack video though. I need to make test wires with switch.

    On our 5.7 Ford f-350 there is an uninsulated heavy gauge wire between the solenoid and the starter - about 2 inches long. so I jumped that with main power wire going to the solenoid. The leads on my remote starter got hot just clicking a few times but the starter didn't budge. I might try banging on it. I thought these things were serviceable so I wanted to isolate the issue.

    Yes jumping the starter solenoid will start the car if the key is in the on position.and get you going but to fix it for good instead of spending lots of money on a brand new Gm starter
    Many people me being one of them uses a ford starter selinoid with an extra battery cable to leghten the starter cable to move the selinoid up and away from the starter it works just as good if not better because it’s no longer right next to the motor and exhaust pipes where the high heat kills the selinoid time and time again yes you can keep the original Gm starter and just wire in a ford starter selinoid and that will work just fine and also not only is it better but cost is a lot cheaper then purchasing a new Gm starter and it happening all over again in a few months if that it is just wired up to the original Gm starter with a 2 foot battery cable anywhere in the engine bay with the extra battery cable going to the original Gm starter sometimes it last but most times it will fry the selinoid all over again causing the issue over and over with the ford selinoid wired into the Gm starter I have had no further issues at all and the car starts great every time.
    You can look it up on line
    Using a ford starter selinoid with a Gm starter it leaves the old Gm selinoid right where it is and having the ford selinoid up and away from the direct high heat fixes the problem for good
    Hopefully this will help a lot of people fixing there starter solenoid issue and keep them from being stuck because of it. Look into it I’m glad I did . Real simple to do and fixes it for good .

      Well the only thing I can think of is the starter is bad. If you jumped it and it smokes then it is most definitely gone. If the starter is together with the solenoid then you need a new starter. If it is separate then you need to test the motor separately.
