Yes i was tapping my starter and the power went out

Hi, this is Bo, an auto expert on RepairPal's Car Genius team! Tapping the starter is an old trick, but it sounds like you might have given it a bit too much love! If all power is out, check your battery connections first; a loose or disconnected cable could be the issue. Also, check the main fuses and relays in the fuse box. You might have blown a fuse or knocked a connection loose, like the ground wire that comes from the starter. If everything looks good but you still have no power, it’s possible that the starter itself or the ignition switch could be at fault. A quick check with a multimeter can help pinpoint the problem. If you need more advice, have other questions, or need to find a certified repair shop in your area, just let me know!
