Starter malfunctions may cause a Di agnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) to be stored in Motor Electronics
Sequential Fuel Injection (ME-SFI) sy stem. After repairs are completed check for and erase any DTCs stored in
(ME-SFI) system. See appropriate SE LF-DIAGNOSTICS article in ENGINE PERFORMANCE. If cause of
starter malfunction is not engine pe rformance related, replace starter.
REMOVAL & INSTALLATION

Removal & Installation
1. Disconnect and shield negative battery cable. See BATTERY DISCONNECT/CONNECT under
SERVICE PRECAUTIONS.
2. Remove nut (2) for inner fender. See Fig. 5
. Pull front and rear section of inner fender (1) downward.

. Remove bolts
(3) for starter-to-crankcase. Take starter (M1) out to the side.
5. If replacing starter on vehicles with manual transmission, check ring gear at flywheel for wear and
damage. If replacing starter on vehicles with auto matic transmission, check ring gear on drive plate for
wear and damage. Repair or repl ace damaged parts as necessary.
6. To install, reverse removal proce dure. Replace bolts with locking splines, micro-encapsulated bolts and
self-locking nuts. Mating thread of mi cro-encapsulated bolts must be cleaned to remove all residue of old
