I'm a woman thats very handy but lack in fixing motors, carbs n such. I was mowing, stopped and turned it off for 10 mim and when I tried to start it, absolutely nada. No clicking, no noise just dead. Battery was fine but when I did your test I had absolutely no light come on on my meter anywhere on the solenoid. Thank you for making a detailed video, you helped me figure it out so I didn't have to borrow a trailer and wait 2 weeks!
Man you have saved the day with your videos. Have not been able to cut my gtass for three weeks and then we had rain from hurrican debra or whatever it was called. Was able to get grass cut today !!! Thanks again for posting . and yes new sub ✊ Guy Speight
So it would be safe to say that I have a bad Solenoid and a bad starter since when I jump the solenoid, nothing happens. Would that assumption be correct?
Quick question. Does it matter which side the same terminal is? As in does it have to be on the battery side or it doesn’t matter if it’s on the starter side?
I put a DBC 5.3 in my 94 s10. I got my cruise control to work. Was pretty easy because both the S10 and my donor vehicle both had cruise. Was a little more than a plug and play but it was pretty easy to hook up.
So I saw that your TCC indicator light was on at idle. Is it the case that power is running to the TCC but it is not in lockup since the truck is parked?
Same process as replacing a tube on a bike. Thanks for pointing out how to tell whether its a tubeless or tube tire. That was useful to me. Also, I never knew what that little tool was that my dad had (and maybe I now have?), but you showed me. A tire stem tool. Pretty cool!
First off: GREAT video. Thanks for that. Second: what brand is that tester? That thing is awesome! Lastly: your son shouldn’t have any excuses in life, much less not to cut the grass. With a teacher like you, he could rule the world. Now I’m gonna go test my starter solenoid. 😊
Thanks for the compliments. The tester is an off the shelf unit from an auto parts store. Any store that sells fuses will have the tester. As for my son, like most kids, he doesn't think his parents know anything 😒
This is the best lil tutorial video on youtube! To the point, great explanations, good camera angles and easy to understand. This is how all of them should be done! Thank you
@@avarageerod welcome. My husqvarna has 2 side posts on the solenoid. Any idea what those 2 would be for? One for sending power after making the safety switches and the other maybe for????
thanks for the video. Any particular reason you sandwich those nuts between the ubolt bracket? I see the instructions say not to but maybe you know something they don't.
I looked at the two reviews below and must agree. This is really the perfect way to diagnose a safety switch issue and if not that then a starter solenoid problem. This should be a very strait forward and simple diagnostic, but you are apparently the only person on Earth who can explain it easily. You have saved me an enormous headache.
It looks like the bar ends are in the perfect position at 2:04 if you just cut the sleeves down to the needed length, and use a shorter bolt, you'dbe in great shape. EDIT: seeing the final install, it looks good!!!
You can wire this in series: K058 Vac-Switch, 4th Gear Pressure Switch, the LOCKUP Defeat Dash-Switch, and the internal-solenoid on the 700R4 - run it all to the 12V supply and ground the internal solenoid; Averagerod mentioned a delay and yes you can buy a vacuum delay off of Amazon and it will delay the vac-switch to delay activation by a few seconds; For the torque-converter to lock in 4th gear: the dash-switch is closed, the oil-pressure switch is closed, the vac-switch is closed .. and that sends 12V to the solenoid which locks the torque-converter; there are other ways to do this; in the example here averagerod is running this to manifold vacuum; you can also wire it NC or NO .. as you see fit, and run it to ported vaccum; the vac-switch is expensive, but it is adjustable and high-quality;
Thanks for the clip! I"ve got an LQ4 going in my 66 C10, I installed this cam but haven't gotten it running yet! I like the sound of the Summit mufflers you're running. Is it too loud inside when going out the back? Thanks again!
It's similar to the reason lifters are a PAIN to remove from an old junkyard block, the old oil builds up in the spots that aren't making contact and creates a burr of carbon in the bore. The amount of oil crud that can fill the internal passages of a neglected LS are really amazing.
What brand shock extenders? I dont have a flip kit done only drop shackles and hangers plus helper leaf removed...Can the sway bar be installed? THE 4inch bolt is what thread size? Nice
