Why doesn't my 65 fairlane turn the motor with the switch I need to jump start from solenoid. I has new solenoid and switch.?

Did you replace the ignition switch? Not the key tumbler but the actual ignition switch. If so, you have a wiring problem.

Is it the starting motor or solenoid switch?
BOTH.
What is another example of a parallel circuit?
Another example is a switch, bulb, solenoid, and a motor. When the switch is turned on current flows through the bulb, solenoid and motor simultaneously. This causes the bulb to light, the solenoid to the activated and the motors spindle to rotate, all at the same time.
Does the solenoid control the electrical system for the car?
No a solenoid switch (full name) does not control a cars electrical system. The solenoid is an electrically operated switch that sends power to the starter motor which in turn cranks the car's engine to start it. The reason a second (electrical) switch is needed to crank the starter motor, is that the starter motor requires such high voltage that the key would melt if all that power were to run through it. In other words; When you turn the key you are sending a small amount of power to the solenoid switch which in turn sends a large amount of power to the starter motor.
What does a car starter motor solenoid do?
When opened by the starter switch, it sends electricity from the battery to the starter motor to start the car.
Where would you find the solenoid in the car?
The solenoid in normally by the starter motor and is a relay so the starter switch does not conduct the full amps needed to turn the engine.
What does the sylanoid do?
A solenoid transfers electical energy and activates some other device. Solenoid, means a coil of wire. It is generally arranged as an electromagnet, which can pull on a lever and operate a heavy switch. A solenoid used in cars, is a heavy duty relay. A small current from the starter/ignition switch, causes the solenoid to pull a plunger, which makes switch contacts for heavy duty cables, directly from the battery to the starter motor. The small ignition switch and wiring, cannot take the huge amouts of current to operate the starter motor. So the solenoid acts as a remote switch, which also keeps the heavy cables short and under the hood. Most modern engines use a pre-engage starter motor. The solenoid is an integral part of the motor. It pulls a lever which engages the pinion gear with the starter ring around the flywheel. At the last part of the movement, heavy duty switch contacts are made, which connect the motor to the battery, via extra thick cables.
What is the difference between a starter motor and starter solenoid?
On my 1995 Ford Explorer , as far as I know , the starter solenoid is mounted on the starter and the starter relay ( which most people just refer to as the solenoid ) is mounted near my battery and has the positive battery cable connected to it ( a relay is a low voltage switch ) P.S. I'm not a mechanic / technician
93 s10 blazer motor spining over with key is off?
Starter solenoid switch is stuck closed.
What is a stuck solenoid?
A solenoid is a type of magnetic switch responsible for helping your starter motor turn on the engine. When the solenoid sticks, the ignition struggles to start. When this happens, usually your key will "catch" in when you turn it to start the vehicle.
Where is the oil pressure switch on a 2000 Honda civic si?
The oil pressure switch on a 2000 Honda Civic is on the top of the motor. It screws in the side of the vtec solenoid.
Sj413 starter relay where is it?
If it is like my '86 Samurai there is no starter relay. It uses a starter solenoid on the top of the starter to pass battery to starter motor when the solenoid is activated via the key switch.
What does a electrical solenoid on a winch do?
The same as in a car. The heavy current required by a winch motor can easily burn out a small switch .By operating a solenoid first you get a heavy duty switch operated remotely and closer to the winch terminals thus lowering voltage drops in the wiring.
