First, check the battery cable clamps for cleanliness and tightness, inspect the battery cables and replace any defective ones, test the battery's condition, check the starter motor wiring and connections, ensure the starter motor mounting bolts are tight, examine the related fuses in the engine compartment fuse box, verify the correct operation of the ignition switch circuit and starter relay, and consider the Transmission Range (TR) sensor, which may require professional checking.

Start by disconnecting the cable from the negative terminal of the battery. Raise the vehicle and support it securely on jackstands. Remove the three 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, then 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. For installation, reverse the removal steps.
