I've been having some charging/starting problems lately. I took my SVX by Advance Auto Parts today and had them run their diagnostic machine on the electrical system. The battery and alternator checked out ok, but the starter showed a draw of 198A. The machine said that was acceptable, but it seemed way too high to me - I was expecting more in the 100A range. Would this indicate that my starter is starting to go?
