1993 S10 Starter Removal

The removal of a 1993 S10 starter requires you to be under the Chevy truck so you can easily reach the components needed to remove it from the vehicle. Although the starter is located on the bell housing of the S10, the process for actually removing it is not overly difficult because you can reach it without removing unnecessary components.

Instructions

    1

    Place the front of the vehicle on jack stands and secure it by placing a wheel chuck behind the rear tire.

    2

    Open the engine hood and disconnect the negative battery cable. Leave the engine hood open to allow additional light to get under the S10.

    3

    Locate the starter next to the bell housing on the bottom drivers side of the engine. Use the replacement starter as a visual aid.

    4

    Remove the starter wire that bolts onto the back of the starter by removing the nut that secures the wire to the starter with a socket and ratchet.

    5

    Remove the three bolts that secure the starter to the bell housing with a socket and ratchet and then pull the starter gear free from the bell housing.

    6

    Disconnect the wiring connector that connects the starter solenoid to the electrical system. Push in on the center tap on the connector and pull on it to release it from the solenoid.

    7

    Connect the wiring connector to the solenoid on the replacement starter.

    8

    Place the gear of the starter into the bell housing and bolt the starter into place.

    9

    Reconnect the large starter wire and tighten it with the nut.

    10

    Reconnect the negative battery cable.
