The quick, repetitive noise that comes from a car when you turn the key when in the on position is called the "crank", referring to the electric starter motor "cranking" the motor to initiate ignition.<br /><br />The phrase "turning over" does not refer to the crank, and is a typical misuse, leading to confusion.<br /><br />Another cause of a car not starting with a good battery and a noise that could be considered a "fast crank" is a failing starter motor. The "fast crank" will sometimes never turn over no matter how many times it cranks, and continuous cranking in this state will lead to further starter motor damage. An easy way to get a car running with a bad starter requires a medium straight pry bar or "crowbar", a small hammer and a second person. Find the starter motor in the engine bay. Place the pry end of the pry bar or crowbar on the starter motor and LIGHTLY tap the other end with the hammer. Simultaneously, have a second person crank the engine. Nine times out of ten, a bad starter motor will be failing due to small pieces which look like teeth falling off, and tapping the starter motor while cranking allows the motor to find a good "tooth" and produce proper charge to initiate a good electric cycle, and will start the car. This condition will only worsen with time so timely repair is essential.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09683044372344227751noreply@blogger.com
