Before commenting on the video here, it is important to clarify that it is aimed at Citroen vehicles in general, not just the Citroen C3, as the process is practically identical between them. Since the aforementioned starter motor is located at the bottom of the engine, it is necessary to lift the vehicle with a jack or a workshop lift and once located, proceed to disconnect the electrical cables that power it and then unscrew the locking pins, removing it from its seat.

The installation of the new one involves the reverse process. Of course, the instrument panel must be turned off throughout the entire process.
