Where is the starter motor located in the Ford Explorer?

Model: Ford Explorer U152, MK 3 - Years 2002-2005
Part: Starter motor

In this video we can see where the starter motor is located in the Ford Explorer and how to proceed in case we need to replace it, a very simple operation. As shown, the starter motor is located in the lower left area of the vehicle, right near the differential. Before proceeding with its disassembly, we open the hood and disconnect the battery, then we go under the vehicle and, by unscrewing the respective nuts, disconnect both power poles. We then unscrew the two fixing bolts with a 13mm socket wrench, separate the starter motor from the support, and install the replacement.
