How to troubleshoot starting problems with CASE CONSTRUCTION Excavators when the starter doesn't rotate?
- TTimothy JonesAug 6, 2025
If the engine of your CASE CONSTRUCTION Excavator doesn't start and the starter motor either doesn't rotate or rotates weakly, several factors could be at play. It might be due to a discharged battery, in which case you should charge or replace it. Check for disconnection, looseness, or corrosion at the battery terminals; repair any corroded areas and ensure they are securely tightened. Also, inspect the starter ground wire terminal for detachment, looseness, or corrosion, addressing it similarly. High engine oil viscosity can also hinder starting, so replace it with oil of appropriate viscosity. If these steps don't resolve the issue, the starter or electrical system may be faulty, and you should consult your CASE CONSTRUCTION Dealer.
