Default Help, How to check starter maunally?

Most times U can take ascrewdriver and jump a selenid on a starter to see if its bad..

Is there any way to manually check my starter?

My girl kept the starter spinning when it wouldnt start and now it only clicks on the 3 relays and no starter action.

Im soo tired of this car.Im giving it away in 2 weeks maybe some here wants it????
I want a quiznos hero and its yours 1/28/07

Just tap on the started housing with a small hammer or something. Sounds like she could have burnt it up cranking it too long.
