If your co-worker was hitting witha hammer and it moved the strarter is probably bad. Take it to an Advance Auto ro Auto Zone and they will test it for free.

Well, it is almost a sure thing that if it turns when you hit it with a hammer it is ceized. It has just let a bearing go or a brush has come out of place. If your looking for a really good place to go online to get a replacement, http://www.rockauto.com is a closout site that has unreal prices on name brand stuff. They sell out real fast on the best deals though, it is a good thing to check it daily for the best deals. I got a $250 wiper motor for $40 shipped.
