wat woulda caused that?

is there no way of repairing it? or is it time to replace it?


Remember that smoke? that was the insulation burning away in your starter motor and starter solenoid - if you're really lucky, some melting wiring was assisting in the burning of the insulation.

without insulation - in the starter solenoid or starter motor - your starter is toast.

cause? solenoid was probaly begining to fail and arc across the contact points - that either welded the points shut or some other kind of failure resulted in the points closing.
