I like the way you cover all the testing to rule out the possibility for other component failures rather than just drawing on a gut feeling that for example in this case; the starter was bad. It seemed logical but there are other things that would have affected the intermittent start as well ... As always; well done! 😊
You're apprentice is very lucky to work with you. He is going to learn alot! Doing the basics by checking for voltage, Ground and voltage drop is definitely the best method before replacing a starter. I once replaced a starter on a straight shift Nissan, just to discover it was an intermittent problem with the clutch safety switch. I was for sure it was the starter. I learned a valuable lesson that day! Thanks for this video, I'm sure it's going to help many!
@bobcombs7138 My Pleasure! doing some tests before replacing a component is always the best way to go about these kind of issues, My apprentice Kyle is very smart and he learns very fast, he is a hard worker we are lucky to have him! I'm excited to see the kind of Technician is gonna be in the Future!!
Bro, pls teach your troop that checking the oil first has priority, we don't start engines on RU-vid before checking oil and the owner can come back and claim that we are the one to kill their engine after some oil leaked out in our parking area, or any other lie they may invent, CYA pls. Thanks for the troubleshooting and starter swap procedure.
Great how to! One question how did that battery tray come out so easily? My ‘06 has bolts I had to take out from the side of the frame under the air box.
On my honda accord 2017 I had issues with not starting , I thought it was the starter, but it it was a relay module located in that big fuse box under the hood.
What about doing a voltage drop test on the wire from the relay to the starter solenoid? Is that a good idea or not necessary before changing the starter? It might be able to light the test light but the light only draws about 250 milliamps and starter solenoid can draw around 20 to 30 amps.
@@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair on my scooter my stator is grounded on one side to ground on all coils, charging coil, ignition coil, lighting coil and trigger coil , and i want to ask you why is it like this, thanks sir
@@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair I want to know how test heater circuit pulses after r moving AF sensor because one mechanic say on metsubishi cars heater circuit gives pulse even AF sensor not connected but in my car after removing error code give please only for 10 seconds then stopped So is this pcm system Or ecm has problems
If the starter just spins but doesn't engages. What can it be? I replace the starter with a new one and still does the same, just spins doesn'tengage.. Battery is good as well.
@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair I turn the engine and it is not seized. I did all three electrical test to see anything wrong with the starter circuit. They all passed.
@redbearddirt Yes! You must be a Honda Guy!! Lol!! we replaced the timing belt, tensioner and idler pulleys off camera to fix that noise, the noise was fixed after we replaced those components, I just didn't want to film it because I already have a similar video on my Video playlist here!
@daveunbranded Yes! the timing belt tensioner was completely defective, we did the timing belt on it off camera, we replaced the timing belt, tensioner, water pump and idler pulleys off camera then the noise stopped!
@@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair I heard that same noise on a neighbors car. Removed the serpentine belt and noise still existed. Sent him to the local shop for the timing belt. That is how I knew what it was
