Tools Required

Caution: Unless directed otherwise, the ignition and start switch must be in the OFF or LOCK position, and all electrical loads must be OFF before servicing any electrical component. Disconnect the negative battery cable to prevent an electrical spark should a tool or equipment come in contact with an exposed electrical terminal. Failure to follow these precautions may result in personal injury and/or damage to the vehicle or its components.

1. Disconnect the battery negative cable.
2. Raise the vehicle and suitably support. Refer to Lifting and Jacking the Vehicle in General Information.



3. Remove the following starter motor lead components:

•	The terminal nuts (1, 2)

•	The washers

•	The battery cable terminal lead

•	The starter solenoid terminal lead

4. Remove the RH catalytic converter. Refer to Catalytic Converter Replacement in Engine Exhaust.



5. Remove the RH engine mount nuts (1).
6. Lower the vehicle.
7. Remove the resonance chamber to throttle body ducts.
8. Install the J 28467-A with the J28467-450 adapters to the RH of the engine.
9. Raise the RH side of the engine about 38 mm (1.5 in).
10. Raise the vehicle.
11. Remove the engine mount (4) from the engine mount bracket and the front crossmember.
12. Remove the engine mount bracket bolts.
13. Reposition the bracket.



14. Remove the starter motor bolts (2, 3).
15. Remove the starter motor (1).

1. Install the starter motor (1) to the vehicle.

Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

2. Install the starter motor bolts (2, 3).

Tighten
Tighten the bolts to 60 N·m (44 lb ft).
