If you have the starter out of the car, there are many auto parts stores that will test them for you for free. They know that if it is bad, you will probably purchase a new one there.

Testing them yourself can be dangerous because of the torque involved and electricity.

Not that hard, it's located on the back side of the motor. Make sure it's the starter. You can test it with a remote starter. My car has the problem with the ignition, because it started when I hooked up the remote.

How do you know if it is the solenoid or the starter that is bad on a Ford Taurus SE?

Usually you can bang on the starter with a hammer when it doesnt want to start and that will do the trick. It will engage and the car will start. If that is the case then the problem is the starter itself and not the solenoid. You can also remove both and take it into any Kragens or autozone and they will bench test it for free and tell you. You can also use the screw drive method by bypassing the solenoid and applying power directly to the started by laying it across the 2 terminals. if it starts then the solenoid is the problem assuming you have power to it.


Is a 2011 Ford Taurus a good car?

I'm not a fan of Ford, personally, but Ford has really upped their game in the past few years, and the quality of their vehicles is much better now. The sixth generation Taurus gets good reviews, has a good power-to-weight ratio, and gets excellent crash test safety ratings. But remember, a car can only be as good as how it's maintained.
