To remove the starter in vehicles with V8 engines: Disconnect the cable from the negative terminal of the battery. Raise the vehicle and ensure it is securely supported on jackstands. If equipped with electronic power steering, disconnect the electronic power steering connector for additional access to the starter. Remove the starter heat shield if it is equipped. Remove the starter motor mounting bolts. Move the starter motor assembly forward far enough for the pinion gear to clear the starter hole and the driveplate ring gear. Tilt the starter downward so that you can reach the electrical terminals on the solenoid. Disconnect the battery cable and electrical connector from the terminals on the starter motor solenoid and remove the starter motor. Installation is the reverse of removal.

Begin by disconnecting the cable(s) from the negative battery terminal(s). Raise the vehicle and support it securely on jackstands. On certain models with 4WD and specific transmissions, there may be a support bracket blocking access to the lower starter mounting bolt. If present, remove the support bracket bolts and pry it aside. Remove the heat shield, if equipped, from the starter motor. Next, remove the nut securing the battery cable to the terminal stud on the starter solenoid and disconnect the cable from the terminal stud. Disconnect the electrical connector from the spade terminal on the solenoid. On models with a manual transmission, remove the starter mounting bolt and nut. On models with an automatic transmission, remove the two starter mounting bolts. Move the starter motor towards the front of the vehicle until the nose of the starter pinion housing clears the transmission bellhousing. Tilt the nose down and lower the starter to access the wiring connectors more easily. Finally, disconnect the battery cable and electrical connector from the terminals on the starter motor solenoid and remove the starter. For HEMI engines, follow a similar process, but also remove the two starter motor mounting bolts. For diesel engines, disconnect the wiring harness and battery cable from the starter, remove the three starter mounting bolts, and then remove the starter.

Ensure the battery is charged and all terminal connections are tight. If the engine is partially seized or has the wrong viscosity oil, it may crank slowly.

Before unbolting the starter motor assembly, detach the wires from the solenoid (or from the starter motor itself, on some models) - be sure the battery is disconnected.

Check for battery voltage at the starter solenoid to confirm proper voltage from the ignition switch. If voltage is absent, refer to the wiring diagrams and inspect the fuses and starter relay. If voltage is present but the starter does not move, remove the starter from the engine and bench test it.
