Actually removing it is a terrible job. Annoyingly, it’s rarely the starter motor that fails so removing it is usually unnecessary. So, if you go to start the car and you only hear a click from the fuse box, you have a fault with the starter. All isn’t necessarily lost though as there are 2 things you can do that could get the car started. At least it’d get you home or to a garage so the full repair can be done. Faults To Check Firstly , check that the engine earth lead is connected properly both ends and isn’t damaged. Secondly , you should check to see if the alternator is seized . Thirdly , hitting the starter motor can make it work. The starter motor can just about be seen behind the first 2 legs of the black inlet manifold on top of the engine (see below). Hitting it can free a seized solenoid or temporarily sort out the connection mentioned next. Fourthly , you need to check the starter trigger connection. Click if info helped 98 likes 46218 views Print
