    Strange starter behavior.

    Hello r3v,

    I'm having a strange issue with my starter. I've just replaced the old starter with a Bosch reman. The previous one would click once when I turned the key, but it would fail to turn over and the cylinder would lock the key out of the start position until I turned the key all the way off. Now with the reman starter, the starter motor engages as soon as I connect the battery even if the key is in the off position, and it does not engage the flywheel. I've checked the wiring about ten times and I'm starting to get a bit flustered. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

    Will not be the first time a new defective has come off the line. Pull the starter and bench test it.
