EXCELLENT my Friend very simple and very practical Information . The others make very complicated . Thank You very much and best Regards from an old Mechanic and Professional Intercontinental Ex-Boxer . From C A N A D A .
Sir you did a great video it was so good on the camera view and you gave clear direction and instructions I have researched many videos as a Older female that does her own mechanics on a 2003 Dodge Caravan this was one of the best videos for the starter replacement I Thank you 🖐️ and May The Lord Jesus Christ Bless you and Speak to you today in Jesus Name Amen🤍🖖shalom
I'm glad you put in the point about gluing it on that thing is a mother you basically have to hold the plate onto it as you align it. This is definitely not a novice repair.
My starter isn't spinning sometimes. I thought it was my battery or alternator, but I had them checked and they are good. So I'm thinking it's the starter. I'm also wondering if it could be my ignition switch or my gear changer. It seems like if I mess with the gear shift and make sure it's in park the car starts better, but sometimes it seems like the battery is weak. I guess it could be a bad wire too. I did clean my battery connections. I'm not sure exactly where the problem could be. Just started doing this a week or so ago
it easy to get an small ratchet with head adapter and extension, for the top bolt, there is not enough room to turn the ratchet, if is small will get more turn
Workin on a friends van that’s the exact same vehicle . It makes no noise when I turn the ignition over , but it makes the dinging noise when i insert the key . Starter solenoid maybe ?
that dinging noise is only to let you know your key is in ... 1st make sure battery has a good charge .2nd you might have to bench test as i did in video
@@lordronthepimp You should be able to tap it or move it. Maybe gently pry it with a long screwdriver. (Make sure not to pinch or cut any cables while you do it.)
It might work, but the starter may look slightly different. Make sure you buy the right one. If it's not the right one, like I have just ordered one that did not look the same, the insides were the same, so I swapped out the motor itself and the solenoid which was badly worn and corroded inside. Once I switched it out to new parts, it's working. So, basically these starters come in two casings. When put side by side, they look almost like a mirror of each other. The screw holes are aligned differently, so you can't use one in place of another, but everything else inside looks the same.
Explained better than mechanics I've watched on youtube

Why cant i lift up the van and break the ground nut from underneath?? I do it on all my Jeeps..

Already did the battery , so power is there . Checked fuses and not seeing anything bad
@@levicallis459 Another idea is to put the car into neutral and then try.
What about a hum click noise?
How do you replace the solenoid clip?
What if the starter will not come out after all bolt's are removed?

@@zsoltnp4758just hit da sob and it will drop off

The 15mm doesn’t fit in 3:52 only the 14
It is the 14mm and then the 15mm
Gotta have a cheater bar. Lmao.

Stop calling it a nut……… It is a bolt…….. supervised you did not call it a screw…..
