You could have a starter going bad, the cables themselves might be bad or the timing may have slipped too far advanced. TRy this before you do anything else. Try jump starting it from another vehicle. If it still turns slowly the starter is probably bad but, then again it may still be a cable. At least you will know it is not a timing issue if it starts right up.
What else can I help you with?
My 1995 windstar tried turning over this morning but couldn't then i went back out to start it again and it had no lights or anything chkd fuses battery alt and starter all good. Any idea?
your battery terminals may have battery acid build up between the terminals and battery posts, remove both terminals and clean with boiling water refit terminals and try to start again...same thing happened to me once...
Can you clean oil of a starter safely and what chemical wont damage the starter?
As long as the engine is not running, you can wipe the starter casing down of any oil spilled on it. Since the battery delivers a substantial voltage to the starter which is required to crank the engine; you wouldn't want to accidentally touch the terminals on the starter when it was turning over.
How do you know if it's your starter that is making your 1997 Honda Passport not start?
First make sure your battery is fully charged. Crank the car, if the engine is turning over (moving) your starter is working. HTH
Why Ford truck does not start after turning off engine?
The starter could be bad. Or the battery. The starter could be bad. Or the battery.
92 escort has power started 5 minutes prior to stop now won't turn over?
It may have had enough power to run, but not enough amperage or voltage to operate the starter. Check the battery with a tester. Voltage should read at least 12 volts. If that is OK check the battery terminals to see if they are clean and tight. If you battery is fully charged and the connections are clean and tight check the starter by turning on your headlights and having someone watch them to see if they go dim when the starter is actuated. If they do go dim or almost out when the starter is actuated the starter is at fault. If they don't show any difference in brightness when the starter is actuated the solenoid at the starter is bad or the ignition switch is bad. Run a test lead from the + side of the battery to the s terminal of the starter . If they starter turns over the switch is bad. If the starter doesn't turn over the solenoid is bad.
Why would a car not start and only make a clicking sound instead of turning over however after several attempts will start am referring to a '98 Isuzu Rodeo 200K miles worth maybe 2500?
Loose or corroded battery cables. Also possibly a bad starter solenoid or starter. Clean and tighten battery terminals. If it still does this, remove the starter and have it tested at any auto parts store.
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 is your 1998 Chevy z71 starting but then turning right off for?
check the battery or battery cables or the alternator or starter
When car battery has been recharged and put back in car engine dies when turning corners?
Terminals or the battery it self are not securely fastened in the vehicle.
Why isn't my Android tablet turning on?
Check your power . Battery and see if it is charged.
When turning the key it makes only a clicking sound?
Its because your battery is "dead" OR your battery terminals aren't making good connection to the battery post they may need tightening
Wont start makes clicking noise when you turn it over?
Does the engine turn over and then make the clicking noise while trying to start, or does it not do anything but make the clicking noise when you turn the key. If its not turning over at all then it might be a battery problem, Try cleaning the battery terminals, and/or charge the battery, Could also be the starter solenoid, but start with the battery first.
