Installation & Service Tips
For safe and correct installation: disconnect the battery negative terminal first. Unbolt the starter (three mounting bolts), disconnect electrical connectors and remove the old unit. Fit the replacement starter, tighten bolts to the manufacturer’s torque specification, reconnect wiring and battery. Common causes of starter failure include worn brushes, solenoid faults, oil contamination and mechanical wear of the pinion or bearings.
