Well as summer starts to roll around and the summer festival season begins...
I was dealing with a IAC valve sensor for my 01 Kia Rio... I went today to a junkyard and got a Idle Air Control Valve for $8, off a 03 Kia Rio... I was happy that maybe my hesitation problems would soon be over... As I got in my Kia - Oh man the car would not start... I thought maybe a jump...? What sounded like a starter gone bad.... at least I hope.. All I heard was click or the starter bindex click either in or out but no turning over engine..
Wow...!! I do recall in the last couple of days I would have a dead silence when turning the key.. made sure the car was in park or it had this feeling I was seeing another problem coming up... and it did... Is this the starter????
Like I stated you hear the starter, but no cranking over the engine... Just seems the bindex may or may not be turning.. I know I could take out the starter and have a auto parts store check it.. I read about a relay... Yeah maybe the last few days what I heard was the starter going out too.... HELP - Get this deadhead back on the road.... ha... Peace, Jack Straw
