How do you disassemble the starter motor of the Fiat Panda?

Model: Fiat Panda 169, MK 2 - Years 2003-2012
Part: Starter motor

Various causes lead to the malfunction of the starter motor of a car, for example that of the Fiat Panda visible in this video, such as gear blockage, worn brushes or armature, etc., so the only solution is to disassemble it and proceed with its repair or replacement. It is found installed near the gearbox, so this is where we will need to intervene, preferably after disconnecting the power cables of the car battery, unscrewing the fixing bolts of the starter motor and disconnecting the electrical cables that power it. From this point on, the work will be mostly done on the workbench, revising it if necessary, before reassembling it.
