Replacement of the starter motor of the Fiat Punto 1.2

Model: Fiat Punto MK 2, 188 - Years 1999-2011
Part: Starter motor

The following steps will show us how to disassemble and replace the starter motor of the Fiat Punto, with a 1.2 petrol engine. First of all, we open the car's engine hood and start disassembling and removing the battery, in order to access the starter motor which we find underneath; to do this, we disconnect both battery terminals (positive and negative), then remove the battery holder, as shown in the video. At this point, we disconnect the electrical cables of the starter motor and unscrew its fixing screws to remove it and replace it with the new original one!
