Take starter ta your local sparkie, he will suss out whats wrong with it, if its only brushes he can throw some in for ya,,,,he can prob recondition the hole starter for ya too if ya want !!!

Speedshop Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Brushes and clean up the commutator will sort 90% of starter motor faults Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good stuff, im not to good on the electric side of things but if the started is now working again after turning the brushes arround then i dont think there is anything wrong with the windings. I suggest just getting new brushes and go with that,,,,,,see how long it lasts,,cause getting the windings re-done will cost a fair bit of £££. HTH ! Maby Speedshop will have a better idea than me on this one,,,,,,,eh! speedshop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
