Again, one of the best produced videos on KZread. Clear graphics, proper use of terms, and clear and concise language used. A joy to watch and learn even when I think I know the subject matter. Very, very well done and most appreciated. Take your coffee!
Yep, the starter motor is the most difficult to understand motor, just stand behind the linear motor... Nice animation Paul! And thanks to the guy who gives effort to start that engine using hand!
I really enjoy your videos and the animations you use to explain and simplify understanding of the subject matter. Last time I "repaired" a starter motor it was as follows; the loud click from the solenoid could be heard but then nothing, battery was fine so I removed the motor for bench testing. It turned out that the contactor plate/ring was not making the contact required for the electrical motor so bent the plate to ensure good contact, reassembled and re-fitted the assembly. I had the vehicle for another 5 years and it was still going strong when I sold the car.

Congrats on the amazing works. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Sorry for my English, I'm still in evolution.
Im a foreman electrician..and I understand how light years above in knowledge electrical you guys are. It’s almost discouraging to believe you guys have got this figured out:
Excellent. Very clear Video. My congratulations.
You can diagnose a possible faulty starter motor by measuring voltage of the thick wire of the starter when you have someone turn the key all the way to start. You can also jump the 12 Volt signal "S" post of the solenoid to the large post going to the starter with a piece of wire or metal object to test for a faulty solenoid.
Big fan of you sir , great explanation of concepts.
I always appreciate by what you are doing its brief explanation
perfect explanation very easy to understand,,,
Thumbs up for your clear tutorial
Motives me to find my physics book from school and re-learn some topics. This is what should be taught in schools because it makes you really interested in the topic. Thank you for your great video!
Thank you, this is one of the hardest mechanisms to understand as a new driver
very much helpful to understand the starter motor
thank you wonderful stuff
Good details and very helpful your videos. It’s great vidoe sir thanks
Great stuff man
Got a brand new Explorer Titanium last March. It takes quite some getting used to, pressing a button to start it and shut it off. Frikkin cameras all over the thing too; traffic light engine shutdown (this feature scared my wife into thinking she broke it on the first day.

Amazing teaching I'm okay to explain how a Starter motor works
They were Bendix Starters in my day. The motor would throw a spinning pinion at the gear ring on the flywheel, using inertia to drive it forward on a spiral spline. There was a real possibility of causing wear and damage to the gear ring on the flywheel, after which the starter instead of engaging would make a loud shriek of clashing gear teeth. You could get the same effect by pressing the starter button/key when the engine was already running - guaranteed to do damage. Once the engine was running faster than the starter motor, the pinion would self disengage and run back down the spiral spline. There was a big spring on the shaft which helped this happen.
Superb
Thanks 🇵🇬
Nice
Очень переживал, что расскажут поверхностно, без упоминания обгонной муфты и двухобмоточной катушки втягивающего. Рад, что ошибся. Респект за дотошность!
Thank you very much, I understand every thing about turn starter the car , but I have a question about turning the car off , after using the starter gear to move the engine, it came back normal and the engine do the rest of the job , but when you switch the car off , which part of the car stop the engine and how?
I advise any one who wants to be engineer in Electrical to follow you and your channel of KZread. Keep it up
Very nice. The assembly that moves the pinion into place is called a Bendix.

It is called either driver or bendix. Both are correct.
I used to work at a courier company full of sub-contracting owner operators. Failing starter motors were probably the most common failure. We would often crawl under the afflicted vehicle and bang the starter motor with a hammer while someone turned the ignition until the vehicle started and could be driven to the shop or the work be done for the day without turning the truck off. No idea why banging the starter motor worked, we just knew that it did and it saved many butts.

Banging on the stater would tend to free up the stuck carbon brushes which have become to short to fully reach the commutator. This arcing causes the brushes to stick in the brush housing and become stuck.
Question: Does the electricity for the pull in coil go through the windings of the motor to go back to the battery (negative side)? If it does, won't it start the motor itself already because it has a little potential voltage going through it?
@fredzakar6325

The motor only draws what it needs and return voltage is always a zero sum.
Ok but that would only make the pistons move, how do the spark plugs know they have to start working? also what happens when you turn your key off? Why the engine stops? Great video thanks for the insane quality!

The ignition system on petrol engines is also energised by the second stage position on your ignition key switch. The third position is to energise the starter motor. It is a momentary switch which means once the engine has fired up the ignition key springs back to second position. In modern csrs the ECU, ignition units and coil packs control the spark and timing. I learnt about cars when carbs, distributors rotor arms and HT coils and off course points were used.
good
At 8:00 min. When pulling coil is energised current is passing through motor coil then reaches negative. Does not it make humming sound of motor as it will try to rotate armature (not possible due to low current)?
Muito bom !
I love all of this!
Do you often use planetary gears for start motors that are produced recently? What is the difference between the two methods? (Benefits and Disadvantages)
When the contactor plate makes contact across the terminals, the pull in winding becomes 0v because both of it’s become connected to the positive of the battery?
Nice video. Though missing many things. The power doesn't go directly from starter key to starter solenoid. Rather, power go from starter key to relay, through safety interlock and from there, it goes to Starter solenoid. Safety interlock will make sure that car will not start in reverse. Please correct.
If you’re jumping a car, never hook up the dead battery cable to the negative post, use the chassis or find another grounding point.
Like always, perfect explanation. Thanks, you are the best.
At 0:53 i can tell that engine is an NET turbo either 1.4 or 1.6 🤣 I know this because i literally rebuild 1 of these every week. Fun fact about them... the heads seem to blow quite easily and rubber the separates water from oil in the oil cooler can crack and cause engine failure😣
Kindly explain the delta-wye transformer or vice versa works... thanks...

Got it.
Is there another way to explain the overrunning clutch and the rollers? That's the only part I can't get my head around. The engaging and disengaging of the rollers to protect the motor and pinion.

As far as I can tell, the pinion ger isn't attached to the shaft it spins freely. The overrunning clutch is what spins with the shaft. And as the clutch spins it's like a spinning rollercoaster on the rollers and they get plastered to the sides of their seats. The housing has ramps so as they get shoved to the side they run down the ramps and are shoved into the pinion gear and engage with it turning it. Then as the flywheel turns the pinion gear faster than the clutch the rollers are going to do what wheels do when you spin them; they run the opposite direction of the force you put on them. Do this put your hand in a big claw for the clutch, inside your claw put your other hand as a smaller claw for the pinion gear. As you rotate the big claw, imagine the rollers lagging behind and engaging. Then rotate the smaller claw faster then the big claw (engine is going faster the the starter). The small claw acts like the ground on the imagined rollers which spins them and drives them back up their ramps, disengaging them. Whoof! that was a mouthfull.
hy do they make a grinding sound
the easiest way to diagnose a starter is to bypass the control system, just apply the power straight to it using a jumper of whatever sort
I'm curious 🤔
