1997 Nissan Pathfinder will not crank Ran great one day next morning nothing All electrical and power works Starter turns over but not cranking?

if starter is turning but not cranking engine, u need to replace starter or starter solenoid and yes i have had a starter go out just like that and when mine went out i was 90 miles from a new one had to get a buddy bring one out


An engine cranks slowly when the starter is activated Technician A says the starter circuit should be checked Technician B says the engine timing should be checked Who is correct?

a, the battery condition should be checked first to make sure that its capable of turning over the starter, a weak battery will cause the majority of starter problems, if the battery is fine then its more than likley to be a problem with the actual starter or poor connections on the starter, i have only ever had 1 with a wiring problem, as for the timing out it will not cause slow cranking unless its well out causing piston to valve contact this is only possible if the belt has slipped or it was timed up wrong on refitting a new belt so b is highley unlikley but not impossable. Checking the timing went away with the distributor.


Will a weak starter keep an engine from turning over?

Yes, it will. Remove the starter and have it tested at you local auto parts store. But make sure the battery is not the culprit.


Starter keep on turning after the motor is runing?

Sounds like the starter solenoid is stuck. Another possibility is the ignition key switch is not automatically returning from the start to run position. As the switches get older they seem to get stiff. Could be a weak spring in the switch or just gummed up lubricant. The easy test is to try turning the key counter clockwise after starting the engine and see if the starter motor stops running.


Why won't my 98 4 runner start I turn the key and there is a loud clickinglights work engine is not turning over?

It sounds like the solenoid is working but the starter is not. Check the wires on the starter. Possibly the starter has gone bad.

does the motor spin..ie..crank? if no possible locked up engine..try spinning it by hand..correct size socket on front crank bolt turning clockwise.. possible bad starter motor does the starter engage when the key is in the crank possition. if the motor does crank your looking at a fuel or ignition problem


94 acura integra won't turn over the battery is new and I've tried to jump it but it just clicks. there is oil in it. what's wrong?

there are some possible problems, starter motor could be burnt out or fuel pump might not be working. turn the key to the on position (without turning over) if you can hear a small "humming" sound the fuel pump is working. i suspect the starter motor is on its way out.


Why is your 1995 Toyota 4-runner not turning over with a good battery?

Do you have any click in the starter itself but still not turning over? Then its the starter giving you fits. Replace it. If no click is heard then it could be a fuse or more likely the starter relay. Check them both before moving to the starter.


Why my 2000 crown Victoria won't start I change the starter?

There could be quite a few reasons why the car won't start. If cranking or turning over the engine is the problem and the starter is good, it may be the battery. If the engine turns over but won't start you have bigger problems...


Started is turning but is not cranking?

The starter drive is shot. Replace the starter and hope the ring gear isn't damaged.
