Starter Test and Replacement

Service Description
You turn the key and hear only a click sound. Or the lights come on but nothing else happens. First, make sure the shifter is fully in Park and try again. If that doesn't work, it may be your starter. Don't panic. Big O Tires has you covered. We'll bench test your vehicle's starter motor and replace as necessary.

Included in your service:

  • Test of starter
  • Replacement if necessary
