When you turn the key or push the start button and nothing happens—or you hear a clicking sound—it could be a failing starter. At Metric Motors, we specialize in diagnosing and replacing faulty starters so you’re not left stranded. We’ll get your engine turning over smoothly again with fast, reliable service.
If your engine doesn’t respond when you try to start it—especially with a fully charged battery—it’s often a sign the starter motor isn’t engaging. You may hear a single click or complete silence.
A loud click when turning the key or a grinding noise during startup can indicate a worn-out starter gear or a problem with the flywheel. Ignoring these noises could lead to further damage.
Sometimes the engine starts, other times it doesn’t? This inconsistency often points to a faulty solenoid or starter relay—components that wear out over time. Don’t wait until you’re stuck somewhere.
If your dashboard lights and electrical systems turn on but the engine won’t turn over, your battery may be fine—but your starter may not be. A proper diagnostic check can pinpoint the real issue.
At Metric Motors, our experienced technicians perform thorough electrical and mechanical diagnostics to confirm starter failure—because we don’t just swap parts, we solve problems. If it’s the starter, we’ll replace it with a high-quality part and ensure your entire starting system is working properly before you drive away.
We also check related systems like the battery, alternator, and ignition to make sure you don’t face recurring issues.
