As we say here in Oklahoma,
“If you can’t fix it with a hammer, it must be an electrical problem.”
Not so fast, sometimes a good crack from a hammer gets a starter going.

When I was an engineering student at the University Of Oklahoma, I had to meet my faculty advisor at one of the wind tunnels. When we got there, two doctoral students were were having difficulties getting the engine powering the wind tunnel running. After my advisor listened to the doctoral students discussion of the steps they had taken to troubleshoot the issues, mostly electrical, the advisor reached behind the engine, pulled out a hammer and knocked the crap out of the engine which started right up. The advisor smiled and said: “Float sticks.”
