it's easy to check the solenoid, put a screw driver across the large nut & the smaller one, and if the starter engages it's the solenoid .make sure the vehicle is in park, or the e- brake is on. ( with key on)

∙ 14y agoHard to determine where the problem may be. If the battery is strong but the starter spins slowly, the problem is at the starter. If the starter spins freely, the problem lies elsewhere (ie, fuel system, electrical/electronic, ignition switch, etc.).

Your 97 Plymouth Breeze wont start the battery is new how do you get it to start again?
If the lights in the car come on, then at least part of the system is getting power. Check the battery connections again. Then check the starter solenoid and starter to insure that they are getting power and are working properly.
Key making clicking noise and wont start?
Bad battery or bad battery connection. The click is the starter trying to engage, but lacking the power to turn the motor.
Have a 1992 Dodge Ram 50 When you turn the key the lights on the dash come on but the starter does nothing you have had the Battery tested the starter tested you have replaced the ECM and Starter?
You should locate and test the solenoid. Most have three connections. There is a large cable from the battery to the solenoid, from the solenoid to the starter and from the start switch to the solenoid. The power terminals to the battery and the starter are large and have large cables. The starter switch connection is much smaller. Turning the key to 'start' provides a low current voltage to the solenoid causing the solenoid relay to close and power from the battery cable to connect through to the starter. If that voltage is present then the solenoid or the wiring between the solenoid and battery or solenoid and starter is suspect. If that voltage is missing then the starter switch or solenoid feed line may have failed.
Why will 95 Chevy s-10 not start battery is new everything appears to power up fine but there is no clicking of the selinoid or starter?
check starter connection,if 12 volts there probably bad starter
When you turn the key to start the dash lights go out and engine does not turn over and the solenoid does not click with a good battery.?
The battery power is not reaching the starter. You have other problems...
Do alternator your make the car start?
No, your battery supplies power to the starter. However if your alternator is defective then it will not supply power to the battery and the battery will soon be depleted.
Will battery lose power if starter is bad?
your battery will not lose power due to your starter being bad. if you have attempted to start the engine and did this for a long period of time with out the engine or an out side source of power charging the battery, it will eventually lose power, due to working and not charging. But for the original question, no the battery will not lose power if the starter is bad. hope this helps
1999 Pontiac Sun fire will not start starter is not turning battery has lots of power when the key is in the ignition and turn to power on not to start engine there is a ticking sound?
battery cable is loose Also check... The ticking sound comes from the starter not getting enough battery power. Even though there is battery power, there is not sufficient load power from the battery to start the vehcile. Put a volt meter across the battery posts and try and start the vehicle. If the voltage drops below 9 volts you need a new battery.
Why does your 97 grand am not turn over or start but everything has power?
Weak battery? Loose or corroded battery cables? Starter solenoid? Starter? Neutral Switch?
What could be the problem when a car does not start?
power, ie battery, then starter, then spark, then fuel
Why does the car click and then not start?
There is two options not enough power it the battery or a bad starter
Does remote start need a new battery in the starter?
There is no battery in the starter.
What cause alternator not to produce power to start engine?
The alternator produces power to charge the battery. The battery powers the starter to turn the engine over.
Truck will not hold power to start with a new battery the starter will click but the power surges and the lights dim.?
Corroded, loose, or defective battery cables.
Does the starter and alternator work together to charge a 1995 Windstar van?
Well not the starter. The starter is used to start spinning the engine and draws its power from the battery. The alternator uses the engines belt to recharge the battery and to power the cars electronics as well as lights. When you shut the engine off, the power then draws from the battery.
You have 99 Chevy cavalier and it doest start is it battery radio still plays or is it starter and if it starter can i rebuild my own starter and if so how much would that be?
Sometimes there can be enough power in the battery to run electrical things but not enough to start the engine. You need to get the battery tested to see if it will hold a charge.You can try to jump start it using another battery. If it will not start this way,try charging the battery first before going on to the starter. If it turns out to be the starter, you can have it rebuilt. This can run about 20.00-40.00.
Is there a common cause for a 1987 454 ltd not to crank when the start button in pressed?
Start by checking battery voltage and then use a test light to check for power at the starter when the button is pressed. If you have power at the starter with the button pressed it could be a bad starter. If no power at the starter then check into wiring and/or relays.
