Loosen the lug nuts on the left front wheel. Raise the vehicle and place it securely on jackstands. Remove the wheel. Remove the splash shield from the left front wheel housing. Remove the starter heat shield and fasteners, if equipped. Disconnect the battery cable and electrical connector from the terminals on the starter motor solenoid. Remove the two starter motor mounting bolts and remove the starter motor assembly.

If the starter does not activate when the ignition switch is turned to the start position, check for battery voltage to the starter solenoid. This will determine if the solenoid is receiving the correct voltage from the ignition switch. Connect a 12-volt test light or a voltmeter to the starter solenoid positive terminal. While an assistant turns the ignition switch to the start position, observe the test light or voltmeter. The test light should shine brightly or battery voltage should be indicated on the voltmeter.
