How do I bypass the starter solenoid?

check battery most likely dead

Connect Jumper Cables directly to Starter Motor or to Starter Motor Side of Solenoid and jump with Car Battery - This will Determine if it is a Bad Starter or Starter Solenoid if it Works w/Solenoid Bypassed. I can be contacted for additional help - "https://www.6ya.com/philip_b05beb373d913f26"

What clicks is the solenoid for the starter. I pushes the starter gear into the flywheel, then the starter motor is supposed to spin the flywheel and it starts. If you hear the click, but nothing else happens, there is a good chance that it is the starter itself. Check the wires going to the starter and make sure that the red one is 12 volts. The black one should go to ground. If it has 12V on it, then it is the starter motor. If it DOESN'T have 12V, then the problem is that power is not getting to the motor.

Make sure you have at least 12.5v at the battery. Then make sure you are getting the same voltage at the solenoid. You should at least hear a click. If you are getting voltage at the solenoid put your test leads so that you can test for voltage on the wire going to the starter. Make sure your other lead is grounded at the batt. Turn key in, in neutral as if you are going to start and push the start button. You should get a voltage reading. If nothing it is your starter solenoid/relay or button. If you do get voltage time to pull that starter!

Assuming the battery is good, there is an electrical relay (referred to as a solenoid when in a starter circuit). This takes the low power from a key, or button and allows more power to go directly from the battery to the starter. Assuming the key switch is good, and the button is good, the starter solenoid may be the problem.

try jumping the solenoid. it might be bad.

Check the fuse on the starter solenoid .

The starter has to throw it's gear out using centrifugal force. The speed of the starter has to be enough to overcome the spring inside. It is either a little seized and needs to be rebuilt and greased up, or the battery isn't powered up enough to get the right speed to engage properly. In that case clean the battery posts and clamps well, then charge or replace the battery. To know if the battery is bad wait till it is charged... if it still doesn't engage try again with booster cables from your car etc. and see if it suddenly works fine.

Just because it's new, doesn't mean it works.
This is why cars get recalled.

The iron-clan test of a non-working solenoid is to cross the relay terminals. If you do and it starts.. it's bad.

Take it back. you purchased a dud. It happens.
