What is the starter for my Kia Pride for?

A starter happens to be an electric motor in the engine contents of your Kia Pride.

How do I change the starter on my Kia Pride?

Before starting the tasks, check that you have the necessary equipment. If you wish to carry out such a manipulation you will need a filled toolbox, your jack, your wire brush but also two candles.

Remove the old starter

If you want to perform this action, the most important thing is to remember the locations, wires for example. Don't hesitate to spot them with a marker if that can help you.

  • Disconnect the minus terminal from the battery of your Kia Pride.
  • If ever getting to the starter from the top is a bit too difficult, don't hesitate to install the jack stands to get there from below.
  • Disconnect all power supplies that connect to the starter
  • Place the jack below the engine if the engine wobbles a bit.
  • Disassemble all the fixings and remember the locations
  • Disassemble the starter
  • Keep the mounting base, since it will not necessarily be sold with the starter to be fitted
  • Rub the pods which can be oxidized with a brush

Attach new starter

Now that the manipulation has been memorized, it will more or less suffice to do the opposite procedure.

  • Compare the old starter of your Kia Pride with the new one so that you can discern if there are certain dissimilarities in fixing, something that happens from time to time.
  • Reclip the starter base to its position
  • Install the brand new starter
  • Check that it is perfectly in its support and screw
  • Connect the power supplies to the starter
  • Reconnect the minus terminal of your battery.
