After bumuhos yung sunod sunod na ulan, dun na nagsimula na magloko yung oto ko...Ngayon, ayaw na syang mag start. I really don't have any idea if it's the battery, alternator, starter, ignition or whatsoever.. So please guys! Help me. I'm dumb on this kinds of things but I want to learn a lot about cars...

And kung may alam din kayo na honest na shop around cainta, rizal. Thanks guys! hope to hear from all you soon...

What sound do you hear after turning your key to start position? Is it a 'tik" sound? does your engine rev ( engine is attempting to start but can't do so)? What is your car? Give us more info?

Thanks sa reply pre...I think parang click sound sya...usually kasi di ba pagdinagstart, parang umuubo yung tunog? So ganon yung tunog nya. Pag inistart ko, isang mahang engggg lang...Hirap din iexplain yung tunog pero parang click nga siguro sir...

Thanks for the reply...I think that's it...It's like a long tik sound. The engine won't rev, it doesn't cough either so I really don't know what's the problem. Just like what he said, I think it's a click sound.

could be the starter. anyway, check your battery first

**testament11** · June 13th, 2009 09:22 AM

hmmmm... check mo battery like moe said. baka discharge na. may extra battery ka pa ba dyan? tapos ganito, patay ang engine, susi mo lang tapos check mo kung may ilaw ka pa o busina. pag wala, battery na yan at kelangan mo na bumili ng bago. pag hindi, starter yan

baka alternator din. doesn't give the battery charge anymore.

pacheck mo starter, baka stuck-up na bendix drive nya (kinalawang), hindi na kumakagat sa flywheel ng makina, umiikot ang starter motor pero hindi ang makina
