The Dodge Stratus Starter is the component that changes electrical energy from the battery into the mechanical energy needed to crank the engine and start combustion. Every Dodge Stratus Starter is an electric motor powered by a solenoid that transmits voltage from the battery. At the same time, the solenoid sends voltage into the Dodge Stratus Starter windings every cycle. Inside the housing, electromagnetic forces cause the rotation of the armature, which is surrounded by field coils or permanent magnets and helps to rotate the shaft that carries the Starter drive at the rear. The solenoid pushes the drive gear into mesh with the engine flywheel or flexplate ring gear. An overrunning clutch disengages the gear after engine fire-up to prevent damage. At the front of the armature are brushes and a commutator that maintain the electrical contact. Inside a gear-reduction design is a reduction gear so that the armature rotates at a higher speed than the output, providing torque in a relatively small package. After the Dodge engine starts running, the Starter disengages. A safety circuit with a relay plus neutral or clutch switches will block operation unless the transmission is in the correct position, which means it starts for Stratus whenever a driver turns the key and leaves the Starter geared for the next ignition.
