Based on industry averages you can expect to pay between $149.99 and $174.99 for a Mercedes 500SEL starter.
The Mercedes 500SEL starter is a component of the car's ignition system that is responsible for turning over the engine when the driver turns the key. It uses electrical power from the battery to engage a gear with the engine's flywheel or flexplate, allowing the engine to start running. If the starter fails to function properly, the engine may not start or may crank slowly.
Signs of a Faulty Mercedes 500SEL Starter
Here are some of the most common signs of a faulty starter in a Mercedes 500SEL:
- Clicking noise when turning the key: If you hear a clicking sound when you try to start the car, it may mean that the starter relay has failed.
- Grinding noise: A grinding noise could indicate that the starter gear is not engaging properly with the flywheel.
- No sound when turning the key: If there is no sound at all when you turn the key, it could mean that the starter motor has failed or that there is an electrical issue preventing it from functioning properly.
- Slow cranking: If the engine cranks slowly when you turn the key, it could mean that the battery is weak or that the starter motor is failing.
- Frequent jump-starts: If you find yourself having to jump-start your car frequently, it could mean that the starter motor is not functioning correctly.
If you notice any of these signs, we recommend getting your vehicle checked by a qualified mechanic to diagnose the issue and perform any necessary repairs.
Steps for Testing Your Mercedes 500SEL Starter
- Perform a visual inspection of the starter and check for any physical damage or wear and tear.
- Use a multimeter to check the voltage at the battery terminals and make sure it's within the recommended range.
- Check the connections at the starter solenoid to ensure they are secure and not corroded.
- Turn the ignition key to the start position and listen for any unusual noises, such as grinding or whirring.
- Measure the voltage at the starter motor when the ignition key is in the start position. It should be within the recommended range.
- Use a remote starter switch to bypass the ignition switch and engage the starter directly.
- Check the resistance across the starter motor windings to ensure they are within the manufacturer's specifications.
- Replace the starter if any of these tests fail.
