Dodge Colt Starter Motor

The Dodge Colt Starter Motor converts battery current into the spinning energy that starts the engine, allowing every Colt driver to start quickly and safely. A solenoid energized by a thick cable from the battery inside the unit pulls the armature into action, rotating the drive gear that meshes with the flywheel, which energizes the field coils or permanent magnets. The design of this Starter Motor efficiently channels power when the engine fires, with an overrunning clutch allowing the drive to disengage and preventing damage to the gears. Over the years, two different styles served this compact Dodge model: the conventional direct drive Starter Motor and the lighter gear reduction Starter Motor. Despite both employing the same electromagnetic principles, the gear reduction version utilizes intermediate gears so that a smaller and faster armature can generate higher torque. This is beneficial for cold starts and tighter engine bays that are common in earlier Dodge Colt generations and also in modern Colt engines. Safety circuits also include neutral or clutch switches that prevent accidental cranking while in gear, a feature that has been proven throughout the history so that every Dodge remains reliable and every Starter Motor works as expected.

Dodge Colt Starter Motor Parts Questions & Experts Answers

  • Q: What is the function of a starter motor with a solenoid mounted on top on Dodge Colt?
    A:
    This type of starter motor incorporates a solenoid mounted on top of the starter motor body, which, when the ignition switch is operated, moves the starter drive pinion into engagement with the flywheel or driveplate starter ring gear through the shift lever. As the solenoid reaches the end of its stroke and the pinion is partially engaged with the flywheel ring gear, the main fixed and moving contacts close, engaging the starter motor to rotate the engine. This fractional pre-engagement of the starter drive significantly reduces the wear on the flywheel ring gear that is typically associated with inertia type starter motors.
