Model: Ford Fiesta MK 7, MK VII, Fiesta 7 - Years 2017-2023
Part: Starter motor

In this tutorial we can see how to replace the starter motor in the Ford Fiesta, a simple operation but one that requires good manual skills. First of all, we open the engine hood, then disconnect the negative terminal of the battery in order to work in complete safety. We then lift the front side of the vehicle, go underneath it and locate the starter motor, which is located near the oil filter. At this point, we disconnect both the indicated connector and the power poles of the starter motor, unscrew the three fixing bolts with a 13mm wrench and separate it from the support. To install the replacement, simply follow the reverse procedure.
