One day sit behind the wheel of your car, insert the key and try to start the engine. But suddenly the unexpected happened under the hood, something clicks, but the starter not spinning. That is no wheezing sound after which the vehicle's engine kicks in. This means that somewhere there is a fault in the starting system.

click but the starter not spinningFirst look at what kind of clicks are, where they come from. This is the sound of the starter solenoid. It has pull-in and hold winding. When you turn the key in the start position of the first of them starts to involve the core of the relay. But the hold-in winding to let him go due to lack of voltage. Because of this, and you hear a click. As a result, the starter turns the engine.

Well, now you should understand why the solenoid can't perform its designated function. The first step is to diagnose hearing: heard only a single click, after which there is silence, or the sound is constant. This is very important. Based on this simple diagnostic can significantly narrow down the Troubleshooting.

If you constantly clicks but the starter is not spinning, then the reason for this can be:

the starter turns the engine- low battery. For Troubleshooting you should charge it.

Bad body ground with the power unit. In this case, it is necessary to check the contacts and the reliability of their connection. If they are oxidized or dirty, they should be cleaned with sandpaper. You can also make extra mass of the wire.

- Poor contact at the battery terminals.

In many cases, the problem with the lack of power can be predicted. For example, when long spins the starter when the engine starts, then you should look for the reasons of his behavior. It is possible that the source of bad start-up lies in the battery or wires.

If after you turn the key only one time clicks, but the starter is not spinning, then the problem may be:

- in the bad ground of the engine;

- in an unreliable connection solenoid with the starter or charring of their contacts;

- in the starter.

long turns the starterTroubleshooting should be performed in the same sequence that was proposed above. Ie first check the weight of the engine and the reliability of connections. If the reason lies in them, the starter would not have to be removed. Otherwise, without disassembling not to manage. Thus, the following breakdown of the starter that does not allow the system to work run properly:

- burned the wire that runs from solenoid to the starter windings;

- worn out starter brushes;

- worn out bushing starter;

- is short-circuited armature windings;

- there is a break or short-circuit one of the windings of the starter;

- deformed or broken fork drive Bendix

- there are faces on the teeth of the Bendix.

It is for such reasons under the hood of the vehicle clicks but the starter not spinning the engine. To return the performance of the car in most cases is very easy when you check electricians and elimination of the revealed shortcomings. If the reason is covered in malfunction of the starter, in this case it is necessary to perform its repair or replacement.
