Most cars will display signs when important ignition components have problems. This guide highlights two signs that mean that an ignition needs to be repaired.
After an ignition switch is used dozens of times, its interior parts will begin to generate a grinding sound. When this happens, you should take your vehicle to a shop immediately because the flywheel will damage if you continue to turn the switch. Besides grinding, there is another sound that an ignition makes when repairs are needed; you'll hear it before you crank the engine. It's a very distinctive whining noise, and it generates when the flywheel isn't interacting with the starter gear properly. If this issue isn't resolved quickly, you may need to replace the starter.
Whenever you hear these sounds, you can service your car's ignition system at Genesis of West Knoxville in Knoxville, TN. We fix ignition hardware in new and used vehicles using professional repair techniques.
