Best Answer

A faulty starter can present itself in MANY ways:

* pulling too much current. * Only "clicks" then nothing. * Does NOTHING, not even a click. * Starter motor engages but the drive doesn't engage the flywheel. * Turns slowly But then, some of those problems can also be an indication of a low battery, faulty ignition switch, or a problem with the neutral lockout switch.

Troubleshooting requires that you start with an open mind. Recognize that the problem can be from a lot of places and if you just "throw parts" at it, all you're doing is making the troubleshooting process more difficult. Every time you put in an unnecessary part you run the risk of installing something improperly, making future trouble shooting attempts more difficult.

Not sure if its the starter or the battery? Check the battery at a store. They can do a check on it for free. If its good then the starter could be bad. Bad starters don't work or they work intermittently. Usually just ehear a click and then when you retry it starts. That's the symptoms. Most places can also check the starter for you.

Replace starter on a Buick lasabre?

To the best of by knowledge, lesabre came with GM V6 or V8. Unless you has da Northstar (Nostart) engine: Two bolts going straight up mount the starter in place. Two nuts hode the wires on to the starter. The rest is even more oblivious. If you has the Nostart engine: It actually does has a super-secret starter hidden under the intake. U remozez the intake and there is da starter and you take it out and put in new1.
