Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The least likely true statement is D, as solenoids and starter drives serve different functions in a vehicle's starting system. Solenoids act as a relay to send electrical current to the starter motor, while starter drives, or bendix drives, engage the flywheel to turn the engine over. Replacing one with the other is not a common practice because they are not interchangeable parts.
