Okay heres the test results..Miles wrote:If you undo the positive cable then connect another piece of wire directly to the starter motor terminal, from the positive terminal on the battery, it will spin by its self as you have bypassed all switches.
This will tell you if the solenoid is at fault or if the cables from the battery-solenoid-starter motor is the problem.
Obviously if the starter motor doesn't spin then it's either the battery or the starter motor it's self. Or a bad piece of wire that you used to test
I couldn't get the starter motor to go off of the battery but I think its because I didnt do it right..
Anyway electric side.
Battery - 12v
Across the solenoid -12v
From solenoid to starter motor point 181 of a volt (.181v)
Ive never known a motor work off of .181 of a volt.. Am I wrong? I think its the cable from solenoid to motor is dead? Any ideas?
