Original Lexus Starters
How Does a Car Starter Work?
A Lexus starter motor uses an electromagnet inside the cylinder body. When you turn your key in the ignition cylinder or compress the push-button start, a rod with a pinion gear within the starter engages and meets the flywheel. This contact spins the engine over, which begins the combustion process.
When to Change Your Car Starter
Typically, car starters can last up to 150,000 miles before they need to be replaced. Some symptoms of a failing car starter can include:
- Engine failure at start
- Starter stays on after start
- Smoke and or a burning electrical smell
- Dead battery
- Clicking noise at start
- Electrical issues
If you experience any of these car symptoms, you likely need to conduct an inspection and replace your car's starter.
