The location of the starter in Volkswagen Bora is under the air cleaner housing. Function of the starter: The starter converts the electrical energy from the battery into mechanical energy, driving the engine flywheel to rotate and thus starting the engine. Before the engine can operate under its own power, it must be rotated by an external force. The process of transitioning the engine from a stationary state to self-sustained operation with the help of external force is called engine starting. As is well known, engine starting requires external support, and the car starter plays this role. Generally speaking, the starter uses three components to achieve the entire starting process. The DC motor draws current from the battery and causes the starter's drive gear to produce mechanical motion; the transmission mechanism engages the drive gear with the flywheel ring gear and can automatically disengage after the engine starts; the switching of the starter circuit is controlled by an electromagnetic switch. Among these, the motor is the main internal component of the starter.
