When the ignition switch is turned on, a small electric current is sent through the starter solenoid. This causes the starter solenoid to close a pair of heavy contacts, thus relaying a large electric current through the starter motor, which in turn sets the engine in motion. [1] The starter motor is a series, compound, or permanent magnet type ...
It was located on the southwest corner of 9 Mile Road and Sherwood, adjacent to the Warren Assembly site on the east. The facility was the site of Dodge Dakota production from 1987 to 2011, with over 2.75 million vehicles produced. [2] The Warren Truck plant became the sole source of Ram 1500 Rebel production in 2015. [3]
An automobile starter motor (larger cylinder). The smaller object on top is a starter solenoid which controls power to the starter motor and engages the Bendix drive.. A starter (also self-starter, cranking motor, or starter motor) is a device used to rotate (crank) an internal-combustion engine so as to initiate the engine's operation under its own power.
The fourth-generation Dodge Ram was introduced at the 2008 North American International Auto Show in Detroit. [44] This generation was sold as the 2009 Dodge Ram 1500 starting in Fall 2008. The 2500 and 3500 pickups were added for 2010, and the 3500, 4500, and 5500 chassis cabs were added for 2011.
The base engine for almost all Ram 1500 trims is the 3.6-liter (220 cu in) Chrysler Pentastar, a V6 engine, carried over from the fourth generation Ram pickup, which produces 305 horsepower (227 kW) and 269 pound force-feet (365 N⋅m) of torque.
A Bendix drive is a type of engagement mechanism used in starter motors of internal combustion engines.The device allows the pinion gear of the starter motor to engage or disengage the ring gear (which is attached to the flywheel or flexplate of the engine) automatically when the starter is powered or when the engine fires, respectively.
Ram 5500 tow truck. The Ram Heavy Duty is available in three different configurations: a two-door regular cab with a long bed, a four-door crew cab with either a standard bed or a long bed, or a four-door Mega Cab (a crew cab extended by 11.1 in (280 mm) allowing the rear seats to recline or offering more in-cab storage [2]) with a standard bed.
The starter solenoid receives a large electric current from the car battery and a small electric current from the ignition switch. When the ignition switch is turned on (i.e. when the key is turned to start the car), the small electric current forces the starter solenoid to close a pair of heavy contacts, thus relaying the large electric ...
