To replace the starter motor on the Ford S-Max, it is necessary to lift the car using a ramp or a jack. This will allow you to loosen the bolts securing the cover of the lower engine compartment and remove it completely.

This will enable you to loosen the fixing bolts of the starter motor and disconnect the connectors attached to it, such as the pressure sensor. When the starter motor is free, it can be pulled out of its housing and replaced with a new spare part, which must be securely fastened and connected.
