Test C: Engine Cranks Slowly

Inspect the following items:

• Battery - Perform the battery inspection test. See BATTERY TESTING & INSPECTION .
• Wiring - Inspect the wiring for damage. Inspect all connections to the starter motor, the solenoid, the battery and all ground connections.
• Engine - Verify that the engine is not seized.

If the battery, the wiring, and the engine are functioning properly, and the engine continues to crank slowly, replace the starter motor. See STARTER  .
