Hi everyone,
I've searched throughout the forum for links on how to remove starter motor and can't find exact answer. Basically, my car will 'tick' once ignition is turned but no power. I've checked all the ground/power wires going to starter and all are clean. Plus, it kind of 'just happened'. Is it hard to remove starter motor? Also, what exactly is it held on by? 2bolts + wires? Any help much appreciated, Cheers, Cal. |

Just clicking? Sounds like you should try your battery first. Give it a jump and see if it will start. Clicking usually means the battery doesn't have enough amperage to turn the starter motor, and the clicking is just it engaging the flywheel (even if there is enough power to run the radio and such, it can still be bad). If the starter itself is bad, typically it just won't do anything at all.
I'm not ruling out the starter, but not being able to see it myself I'm just saying what I gathered from your original post. -------------------- 1999 Celica GT
