How to replace the starter motor in the Honda Accord?

Model: Honda Accord MK 9 - Years 2012-2017
Part: Starter motor

In this tutorial, we can see how to replace the starter motor in the Honda Accord, a simple operation but one that requires good manual skills. First of all, we open the hood, then disconnect the negative terminal of the battery and, taking all necessary safety measures, lift the front side of the vehicle. We then go underneath the compartment, release the various indicated wiring, disconnect the connector, and unscrew the power terminal nut with a 12mm wrench. At this point, all that remains is to unscrew the fixing bolts with a 14mm wrench, separate the starter motor from the support, and install the replacement following the reverse procedure.
