Hi,

Replacing the starter motor on this vehicle isn't too difficult. To get you started, here is a link that explains in general how to replace one. I'm adding this simply because the manual's directions are somewhat vague.

Whatever you do before starting this job, make certain the negative battery terminal is disconnected from the battery.

If you look below, I attached the directions specific to this vehicle.

Let me know if this helps or if you have questions.

Take care,

Joe
