1 Answers
To start a car when the starter is broken, follow these steps: 1. Turn the ignition switch to the 'on' position to power up the vehicle; 2. Press the clutch and engage an appropriate gear; 3. Push the vehicle to gain some speed; 4. Once the engine starts, promptly press the clutch to complete the startup. Precautions for using the starter include: 1. Always ensure the transmission is in neutral before starting; 2. Do not engage the starter for more than 5 seconds at a time, with intervals of at least 15 seconds between attempts; 3. Release the ignition switch immediately after the engine starts to disengage the starter; 4. Turn the key back as soon as the engine starts to retract the starter's drive pinion, reducing unnecessary wear; 5. If grinding noises occur during startup, stop immediately and wait for the starter to halt before trying again; 6. If the engine fails to start after three consecutive attempts, check for potential engine issues.
