What is a Rotor Arm?

The rotor arm is part of your vehicle’s ignition system and is located in the distributor cap. When the key is turned to start the car, a charge is sent from the ignition module through the coil and into the distributor cap, spinning the rotor arm. This carries the charge to each of the terminals on the ignition coil, firing the spark plugs and starting the engine.

If your rotor arm is damaged or worn, it might not make complete contact with the terminals. This will cause your vehicle not to start. If you're handy with a spanner, repairing your rotor arms yourself can save you a ton of money. However, an overheated or burnt out rotor arm is difficult to remove, so you may need the assistance or help of a qualified auto technician.
