Step-by-step explanation:
The subject of this question is Engineering as it involves the malfunction and troubleshooting of a mechanical system, specifically an engine start system.
The starting system includes the battery, starter motor, solenoid, ignition switch and in some cases, a starter relay. An inhibitor or a neutral safety switch is included in the starting system circuit to prevent the vehicle from being started while in gear.
Your starter motor has two gears on it. When the electrical current reaches the motor, they mesh together as the motor spins the engine. As fuel and spark are introduced into the cylinders this is ignited, thus, the engine starts.
Make sure the gearbox is in neutral for a manual car or park for an automatic car. Press the clutch pedal with the left foot (if the car is manual) Press the brake pedal with the right foot (automatic and manual cars) If the car has a key, turn the key to start the engine and let go as soon as the engine has started.
