How to Test a Starter Motor
Model: (Various brands) Various
As our YouTuber says: "this system works for motorcycles, cars, trains, tanks, etc." So, there are no excuses. If you want to check if your starter motor works, follow this correct procedure: connect a ground cable to the negative terminal of the battery; then connect another cable to the starter motor terminal and to the positive terminal of the battery. When you touch the positive terminal of the battery, it should activate, as it normally does. It may also produce some sparks, which is normal.

This will allow you to locate the pipe through which the brake fluid flows: by inserting the other end of the pipe into a container, you can press the clutch pedal to expel all the fluid until it fills the container. by ScegliAuto More videos
