It makes it irrelevant kung malipis na yung carbon brushes nya sa loob ng starter... sila na rin mag suggest sa iyo na palitan pati solenoid para isang baklasan na lang pwede rin naman nila i test yan via battery lang kung mag crank properly bago ikabit
ito yung itsura ng carbon brush na usual na unang nasisira sa loob ng starter

December 22nd, 2013 09:22 AM #24some cars have the electricity running from the battery to the key to the starter solenoid.. it's a long route that offers more resistance to the flow of electricity... when the battery gets a little weak, there isn't enough electricity to activate the solenoid..
to alleviate this, some cars use relays that effectively shorten the route the electricity has to travel to the solenoid, thus cutting down on resistance. these cars then start better..
what your mechanic is suggesting, is to put in a relay and minimize the resistance due to long cables..

December 23rd, 2013 07:08 PM #25Advice taken Dr. D! Will bring it to talyer on Dec 26 pa. The mechanic is suggesting either the carbon brush and starter solenoid. I might give it a go. I'm thinking kasi na pag pinalagyan ko muna ng relay tapos may tama rin pala yung solenoid at carbon brush eh baka bale wala rin.
I wanna ask narin, are there any cons of adding relay to the system?
I think I have problem with my servo din but I'll post it on a new thread.
Merry xmas guys!

December 26th, 2013 11:48 PM #26Just as update guys:
Had may starter fixed na. Bale carbon brush and diode lang ng solenoid lang yung pinalitan.The rest in good condish pa.
Now it's working fine, one click start.
Just an observation though, compared to my other ride (which is a rav4 2005)... napansin ko lang na may millisecond delay before it starts... as in konting-konti lang. With my rav4 kasi sobrang real-time nung kabit ng kuryente, pero with the galant parang nagblink muna ng isang beses yung mata mo before it connects.
...dito na ba pumapasok ang relay? Just curious hehe

December 28th, 2013 12:33 AM #29Maybe a relay din soon. Pero the starter's working just as fine now.

agree ako syo. battery dying will be the next owner's problem. kaso the only reason I'm buying...
