Removing the starter

There are many reasons for a starter failure. The traction switch or carbon brushes may be seized or worn out. The armature shaft may seize in the bearings



SEQUENCE OF WORK

1. Disconnect a wire from the negative plug of the storage battery.

2. Turn away a nut, disconnect the main feeding wire from a starter and remove a control wire from the traction relay.
