The most common malfunctions that happen with starters are wear or jamming of the brushes. As a rule, the problem is solved by the usual cleaning of the brushes and the rotor from wear products. Repair of the rotor is difficult to perform in a garage, therefore, in the event of a malfunction, it is recommended to replace the starter assembly.
Assembly
We assemble the starter in the reverse order, apply grease to the ends of the rotor shaft.
When assembling, it is necessary to combine the marks on the covers and the starter housing. After assembly, we check the performance of the starter (see «Diagnostics of the engine start system»).
