Replacement and Maintenance
Starters typically have a lifespan depending on usage but can often last over 100,000 kilometers under normal driving conditions. Failure usually occurs due to wear of the internal components such as the solenoid or the pinion gear, or due to electrical issues like a faulty connection.
Replacing the starter involves disconnecting the battery, removing the electrical connections, and detaching the mounting bolts securing the starter to the engine block. Access may require lifting the vehicle and removing protective covers depending on the model.
