Whats wrong with your one?

 

[sovanarath]

my car won't turn on. starts up sometimes, sometimes it doesn't. its really inconvenient, so i might aswell get a new one.
i could keep my current one, but if it doesn't start up and I'm screwed hahaha

any idea why it went wrong?
had no previous problem, just last night.

I've got a friend in Whakatane who has a spare S15 starter motor that he is willing to sell. If you pm me your email address I will give it to him, so he can email you directly.

Sure its not battery related?

Mine failed recently, just as described and it was the carbon brushes had just worn down after 16 years of use. Very annoying though. Sometimes it'd start fine and sometimes nothing.

Had mine replaced with a low mileage one out of an S14. S13/14/15 will all fit 100% just to widen your search :thumbs:

Pretty sure. I tried jump starting it, push starting, and so i decided to knock on the starter motor whilst turning on the engine at the same time, and yeah lol it worked

thanks for the knowledge S15Cro
i was unsure. knowing this now makes things a lot easier as sr20det starter motors are so hard to find, due to so many conversions happening
