How do you know what part of the starter is broken?

Most starting problems will be caused by a faulty relay or solenoid where you will only hear a clicking sound when trying to start the vehicle or a low battery in which case you will hear a buzzing-type rapid clicking noise. Ocassionally a starter does go bad in which case what you are listening for is a whirring noise (bad starter drive) where the starter will turn but not engage the flywheel, or a grinding noise also known as dragging (worn bushings) which is diagnozed by the starter turning very slow. If there is a "clunking" noise while attempting to start the engine, the starter drive gear may be worn and "spinning" on the flywheel without engaging, or the gear and/or flywheel may have damaged teeth. Also, there may be a case of a starter being burnt out in which case you have to remove the starter and hook it up direct to see if it will turn.
