How do I know if I need to replace the Battery or Starter?
first you need to check if your battery is running low and if it is test it to make sure if its not working that means the battery's dead so get a new one. then if its still not working then your product is old so its broken then theres only one thing to do get a new one unless theres some one who can repare it. with out load testing both starter and battery, its and educated guess for one without experience. load testing will test the amperage load being used by the starter. load testing the battery will test the battery amperage output, amperage is what does the work. a high load test by the starter indicates the starter is working hard to turn the motor over. avg is 225amps. over 300amps and higher, starter is binding. batteries are rated by cca (cold cranking amps) the higher the # the better rated battery. when cca go down, less amperage is available to turn the starter. amperage is what does the work.
