Test C: Engine Cranks Slowly

  1. Perform the Battery Inspection/Test. See BATTERY TESTING & INSPECTION under ON-VEHICLE TESTING in GENERATORS & REGULATORS article.
  2. Inspect the wiring for damage. Inspect all connections to the starter motor, the solenoid, the battery, and all ground connections. Test for intermittent conditions and poor connections.
  3. Verify that the engine is not seized.
  4. If the battery, the wiring, and the engine are functioning properly, and the engine continues to crank slowly, replace the starter motor. See STARTER  under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION.
