    Hello Dan. What an absolute joy to watch. You don't skip a beat. Explanatory as one could possibly be. You hit every aspect of what to do as well as what not to do. And the reasoning for all of that. God Bless and stay well. Thank you sir.

      I agree this was an incredible video! It's painful to watch other people's videos with music blaring in the background, a shaky camera, and how they chit chat for the first few minutes about some totally irrelevant sh!t, or that robotic voice that narrates while the closed captioning on screen is just murdering the words & spelling. 😂😅

    Very well done. I love the way Dan goes into details about the operation, components, installation, and safety precautions to use when working with starters. Little has changed with starters since I first started working with them in the 70's. I still learned, and remembered a few things as he gave his presentation. Good job, Dan.

    I am 60+ years old , Car Corner did an OUTSTANDING JOB on this video. I learned about rebuilding cars back in the early 70's. When you opened the hood in those days you saw an actual motor and the front of the motor faced the front of the car. My first car was a 1965 Ford Fairlane 302 with a manual 4 speed hurst shifter. Thanks CarCorner great job !.

    Thank you so much for giving me a little more insight into to the starting system operation!

    @lastdaysrevival1521 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I watched half a dozen video on how to test my starter motor which non of them were quite helpful. This video brought so much detail and clarity on the process that I would have happily paid someone to teach me this. Thanks mate for your great work.

  • @johntrauger68
    @johntrauger68 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Automotive starter motors are wired as a series DC motor which has the highest starting torque of all the DC winding configurations. That, and the gear ratio between the starter pinon gear and the flywheel ring gear makes turning any engine over easy street.
    The series electrical connection is from the positive battery terminal, through the solenoid main contact (one), onward through one carbon motor brush, the commutator segment and windings (armature), through the series field windings, and out the other commutator segment and brush back and to the battery negative. The armature winding and field windings are in series.
    Don't mean to be annoying, just love revisiting my past work life.

  • @markw4710
    @markw4710 4 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Excellent guidance here, but with one caveat.
    At 25:20 into the video, you're energising the solenoid but it doesn't pull in. You can hear the arcing being caused as you connected your battery pack to the body of the solenoid, so clearly there's a circuit there. By connecting the way that you did, you were only energising the 'hold' coil of the solenoid. Your battery pack was not weak at all.
    There are two windings in the solenoid, one is called the 'pull in' winding (very strong) and the other is called the 'hold in' winding (relatively weak). They are wound on top of each other. This is why when you nudged the magnetic core with your finger, it popped in. Your finger did the initial 'pull in' job!
    The hold winding is connected across the 'S' terminal and the body of the starter.
    The pull in winding is connected across the 'S' terminal and the load side of the solenoid's main contacts. The pull in winding gets it's earth return via the armature's brushes and windings. (one of the motor's brushes is connected solidly to the body of the starter as that's the earth return for the main starter motor current).
    After the pull in winding has done it's job, and has pulled the core all the way in, the solenoid's main contacts are bridged and send power to the armature (motor spins up) AND at the same time kills the power to the pull winding because now, the winding has 12v on each of it's ends and so because there is no potential difference across the winding, it's magnetic field collapses and it stops pulling. However, the hold winding is energised all the time (when you're calling for cranking) and it then just takes over and holds the core right up at the end of it's travel.
    When (if??!) your engine fires up, you release the key from the crank position and the hold winding loses it's grip on the core and the core is sent back down to it's rest position by spring pressure.
    The way that the pull winding has been wired inside the starter means that a poor or non-existent brush contact with the armature segments will prevent the pull winding from working as there will be no earth return path. This could lead you down a slippery diagnosis path! It would be easy to condemn a solenoid because you can't see or hear any activity from it, when in fact it cannot work because it's earth return path is compromised by bad brushes.
    This is not meant as a criticism at all. I appreciate all the hard work and time that you must have to put in each and every one of your videos. But if the above helps someone understand how the solenoid works a little better, that's good!

      Yes, exactly this- just saw the video and posted the same, and see this was already covered a year before here 👍
      kind of a neat setup using the motor as the virtual ground, since it's so much lower impedance than the solenoid.

    Wow, that covers the reason for having one, how to build one, the complete wiring set up, and so much good safety advice. I now know why my cars only starts in park or neutral, and the dangers of permanent battery connection. Take heed.. a few years back my live wire came into contact with the hot exhaust manifold whilst I was trying to reroute it and within seconds there were flames out of the engine bay. Luckily we had a fire extinguisher to hand and were also able to quickly disconnect the battery. A few more seconds and the fuel line would have melted and the whole car and garage would have gone up in smoke

  • @stuartfox5989
    @stuartfox5989 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Many car engines didn't have a reduction gearbox at their front to engage the crank handle, they had a direct drive slotted starting 'dog' (? ) with ramps to engage a pin traversing the handle so that if the engine rotated in the opposite direction it would tend to eject the handle (maybe the handle engagement means on all vehicles didn't have a contra-rotation ejection means (?) - nevertheless in the 1950's one occasionally still came across people with broken arms which they attributed to cranking an engine - still very useful in case of a 'flat' battery.
    Around 1969 I purchased a new Commer van - made by Chrysler in the UK - the engine had a starting 'dog' at the engine front + an aperture in the bumper .... but a crank handle wasn't supplied.
    The van had an automatic transmission - 'Borg-Warner 45' I think - and if you had a decent downhill run the engine would start.

    • @JodBronson
      @JodBronson 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      99% percent of Techs follow a "Protocol" called "Safety". This will protect them from Law Suits or even Complaints later. If something in the Car/Truck have in existence, like in your case a "heat-shield". He or she will suggest you to replaced if it's missing. Not only it will protect your starter, it will prolong it. If it was put there by the Manufacturers, 99% of the Techs will follow what the Engineer did when they design the Car/Truck.

    • @JodBronson
      @JodBronson 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great teacher. I learned a heck of a lot from this excellent video. This will help me on my 71 Mercury Cougar I just bought for 500.00. It starts right up, but the starter continues to run and wont disengage, so I have to turn the motor off right away to prevent over winding the starter.

    Brilliant video from a professional. Would have liked to see you strip down and replace the starter motor brushes though for the classic car owners that are amongst us. Loved the video. Thanks

    OH MY GOD!!!
    After all these years I finally understand why when (in the Top Gear Bolivia Special) Hammond was beating his starter motor with a large wooden stick, Jeremy said 'Despite using the correct technique, Hammond couldn't get his car going'
    I thought it was sarcasm, but it ACTUALLY WAS the correct technique! You really do learn something new everyday, even if it did take years on this occasion LOL

    I actually knew a man who ran a grocery store in Bismarck, IL who had tried to crank an old car that kicked back and broke his arm. It was damaged so bad it had to be amputated. So many years later he was an old man and I was a child and he told me this story. It left a memory I never forgot.

    It's been a few years but I think this class on starters was better, more informative and more professional than the class in the Arizona Automotive Inst. course I took in 1974. WOW, how things have changed in cars since then!!!! Plugs, Points and Condensers!? Whats that??? I changed professions after Cadillac put 8 separate computers into their cars (which none of them talked to each other) in 1984 and they told me I was going to have to go back to school to learn automotive computers!!?? See Ya. BUT, excellent video/class!!!
