    My 355 won't start
    I hear a clicking sound from the starter engine but it does not turn
    I removed the starter and installed the repair kit I bought from ebay
    Also disassembled and cleaned the whole thing
    It looks OK and the brushes are fine
    But it remains dead
    I measured the resistance of the coils but get very small readings
    Any one know the values??

    Thanks for helping

    Step 1. Load test battery.
    Step 2. Check for correct voltage at starter and confirm ground cables in good condition.
    Step 3. Remove starter and bench test.

    Had the starter bench tested and it was OK
    Cleaned the connections of the ground cables
    The battery voltage was too low because the charger
    not functioning properly

    Thanks for helping me out
