With a slenoid-shift starter the solenoid's plunger is used to move the drive lever to engage the drive pinion with the flywheel's gear what else does the solenoid do- it opens the kill terminal?
When activated it also closes the contacts with the battery + to starter motor.
By taping on the starter on a Pontiac G6 will that make the car crank?
Possibly if the starter solenoid contacts are weakened as this will cause them to reconnect long enough to start the vehicle or the plunger is seized in the wrong position. Once you start tapping starters to engage them a replacement is on the horizon.
How can you tell the starter solenoid is bad?
Good power all the way to the starter, 12 volts at solenoid/start circuit wire when key engaged, but no click or starter engage
How do you get power to the starter?
The positive battery cable connects directly to the starter. Depending on what type of vehicle it is, the solenoid is either on the starter or on the inner fender. Power for the solenoid comes from the ignition switch. You can run a wire to the solenoid to cause the starter to engage.

Why does the starter for a Chevy 350 grind but will not engage the flywheel?
It could be the starter drive, the solenoid, or the ring gear itself. Best to pull the starter out of there and see what's going on.
What causes the starter not to engage when the key is turned on in a 1992 Lincoln?
If there is complete silence when the key is turned, try tapping the solenoid on the starter with a hammer. Don't laugh. I have found this to be the solution in several cases. This is sure proof that the starter solenoid is the problem. You will want to install a new starter which comes with a new solenoid before you get stranded.
Why won't new starter on 1985 Chevrolet 454 motorhome ngine engage?
Starters are made specifically for certain engine and transmission combinations. The snout of the starter must be the correct length for the worm gear to engage the ring gear. If you have the wrong starter, the worm gear will not engage properly. If the ring gear is damaged, the starter might be operating properly, but have no teeth to engage. If the solenoid is not working, the starter motor will spin, but the worm gear will not be pushed forward to engage the ring gear. Remove the starter, and visually check the ring gear for missing teeth. If the ring gear appears to be intact, take the starter back to the place where it was purchased and have it tested. If the starter tests good, check the solenoid wiring on the vehicle to insure that the solenoid is being energized. If all of these steps fail to identify the problem, return the starter and get a different starter out of stock and compare them. You might have a mislabeled starter.
What does the starter pinion gear engage to crank the engine?
Usually, the engine flywheel. A solenoid in the starter moves the starter pinion shaft forward (or backward depending on how it is mounted to the engine) to engage the outside edge of the flywheel (which has teeth to match the pinion gear).
WHY 110 cc ATV made in china Daymak model. starter won't engage-turn over-fully charged battery-clicking solenoid. is it the starter or solenoid- how do i figure if solenoid is bad?
You get a 12volt test light and put the clamp end on the frame where there is no paint Then you put the needle end on the bigger bolt .With the key turned on one side of the solenoid should have power. Then put the tester on the other side and push button to engage the starter it should light the tester lite if it does not lite up then your solenoid is probably bad.
