• Q: How to replace the starter motor on 2006 Chevrolet Equinox?

  A: A technician should start the Starter motor replacement by disconnecting the negative cable of the battery. Proper vehicle support must follow before starting the process. Open the solenoid starting motor by removing the positive terminal nut and wires and then the s terminal nut with wires. The Starter motor replacement process requires eliminating the torque converter cover bolt and torque converter cover. Remove the two Starter motor bolts (2, 3) and proceed to remove the Starter motor. Start by positioning the Starter motor in its proper location and fix it with Starter motor bolts number (2, 3) tightened to 43 n.m (32 lb ft). Replant the torque converter cover before tightening the torque converter cover bolt at 8 n.m (71 lb in). Secure both the electrical wires on the solenoid s terminal by tightening the corresponding nut to 3 n.m (27 lb in). Afterwards, secure Starter motor solenoid positive terminal electrical wires with a nut tightened to 10 n.m (89 lb in). The last step includes lowering the vehicle and reinstalling the battery negative cable.
