About

I started this channel as a way of helping out my fellow DIYers and as time has gone by it seems to be becoming more and more of a passion. I enjoy helping people fix their cars or at the very least become familiar about what the things under their hood are and how they work :0 And as far as I am concerned we are just getting started, so put on your work clothes and subscribe.

Video Description

Here is a quick video on how to test a Starter and Solenoid assembly, using just a screwdriver, jumper wires and a 12v battery. Not the most scientific test but its a good DIY test you can perform before you go out and by a replacement starter for your car.
