Starter test

[Bonfield2002]

This week we viewed spelunkerd showing a great video on starter testing. I am curious to find out what your opinion is on his starter shutting off during a crank with a remote starter switch. I like to follow your rule of finding the evidence, but I'm stumped trying to figure out a loaded starter test that would confirm the bad part as either the starter or starter solenoid. I have never come across this situation before and it interests me enough to find out why. Thanks. Steve

I know nothing about cars. your video is very useful and easy to understand. Thank you.

Thanks. Your video answered my question about checking the loaded starting amps on my 2001 Taurus. It's drawing 191.8A. The normal voltage reads 11.52V. I'll change the starter tomorrow. Thanks again.

Snap-on is not it

[boaterbil]

@ratrace2p51 You want quality? Snap On or Fluke  or can buy junk you will be replacing

[ratrace2p51]

OK, how many volts to the amp?

[boaterbil]

@ratrace2p51 Why?

[ratrace2p51]

yea, but the alternator is rated at 100 amps..

[boaterbil]

@ratrace2p51 What does the alternator have to do with this test?

[ratrace2p51]

Could you introduce the tool seting on the battery???

[ratrace2p51]

Wow, you are the best.

[MUSSTAANG]

would an automotive multimeter like the Equus 3320 work for this test??

[TRcustomengineering]

So.., is there any other way to do this without this tool?

Cause i know that thing cost alot.

Thanks for the great video!

great video ,thanks.it would be nice if a diagram was drawn to show the connections

[LookieLoudLou]

Thank you - only 2 minutes into this video I'm posting this comment. Thanks for the explanation! great video, very helpful.

Would the approximate amp draws provided with this video be about the same if the starter was for a six volt system?
