The main fault of the starter

Starter is a device that ensures that the power unit is launched. It should be known that the service life of the starter is only 5-6 years old - this is about 2 times less than the service life of the engine. Therefore, the diagnosis of the starter is relevant not only for cars, which are no longer the first year in operation, but for newly acquired vehicles.

If the starter started to function with interruptions, it is necessary to find out the cause of such behavior. Since the starter device functions in one chain with other car systems, its breakdowns can be both mechanical and electrical.

If the starter stopped twist or twists very slowly, attention should be paid to AKB and electrical chain:

1. The battery is not charged.
2. Poor fastening of contacts.
3. Damage to the wire between the starter and the battery.
4. Carter oil does not correspond to the required viscosity.
5. Passage of the contact group of the ignition lock.
6. Wire breakdown and bad contact of the retractor relay.

If the starter does not work or simply does not turn on, the reason can be: a breakdown of a relay or a short closure of the starter winding.

If the anchor of the starter rotates, however the starter does not turn the crankshaft, it can be a sinking of a free stroke clutch.

If the starter after starting is not turned off, the causes can be: wear bearing, jamming in the ignition lock, drive the actuators on the anchor shaft. You can correct such faults by replacing damaged items.

If the starter began to make noise, it may be: out of the engagement of the drive gear, weakened the attachment of the starter pole.

The starter is exposed to high loads because he has to rotate the flywheel and run a piston group DVS. Therefore, it is necessary to carefully relate to it and perform diagnostics, to avoid breakdowns.

How to close the starter from the pusher

If the reason for the starter breakage lies in the relay fault, the starter winding or in the retractor relay, you can run it from the pusher, for which you will need a pair of assistants. They should accelerate the car, resting in his trunk, and you should turn on the ignition and first gear at this time. To overclock the passenger car to the required speed, as a rule, you need up to three people. The heavier the TC, the more people need to be towed.

If there is not enough people to perform a car overclocking, the driver can also participate in the towing process. He will have to run with an open left door, holding the steering wheel with his right hand. When the TC is spoiled enough, you need to jump into the interior on the go, click on the clutch and turn on 2 transmission. Then smoothly, however, without delay, let go of the pedal. Depending on the adjustment of the fuel system and its surchase It may be necessary to press the gas pedal. When the car starts, turn on the neutral transmission and, if there is a need, warm DVS to operating temperature.

Towing a car

If it is difficult to find the required amount of pushing, run the motor will help tow the TS towing to another car. In this case, an ordinary strong rope will be required or a special cable, a length of at least 3-4 meters. The success of this event depends on the skill of the driver and the force of overclocking. The following factors also affect some nuances:

1. Road coating.
2. Status of tires leading wheels.
3. Power unit temperature (heated / cold).
4. Piston group compression.

Often, a similar procedure is subject to carburetor cars with a manual box. The launch of their motors safe and usually does not cause a motor damage, which cannot be said about diesel and injection units. In fact, it is impossible to start with a pusher TC with Automatic.

When your car starts when towing, it will accelerate, so do not forget to slow down when it slows down ahead, and also do not shuffle the engine when you leave the car to chop up the cable.

Circuit starter screwdriver

You can simply screw the screwdriver with a screwdriver only if the cause of the breakage is the retractor relay. You can learn about such a breakdown by the characteristic click from podcast spaces when the driver turns the key. This means that the retractor relay turns on, but the leading gear does not turn the crankshaft. The only output in this case is to move the starter with a screwdriver help and thus give a voltage to the winding.

To close the starter with a screwdriver, set the lever KPP In neutral position and tighten the brake. In these conditions, the screwdriver will function as a retractor relay. Insert the screwdriver between the power terminals by closed them.

To start a car directly through the starter, it is desirable to ask for assistance assistant. This will simplify the task. When the assistant will insert a screwdriver, you will closer contacts.
