Model: Vauxhall Corsa Corsa C - Years 2000-2006
Part: Starter motor

In this video, we can see where the starter motor is located in the Opel Corsa and how to proceed in case we need to replace it, which is a relatively simple operation. As shown, the starter motor is located in the lower area of the engine compartment, specifically above the left driveshaft. To access it and subsequently remove it, we first disconnect the battery to ensure safety, then go underneath the vehicle, disconnect both sensors located near the starter motor as well as the power terminals, and unscrew the two fixing bolts. To install the replacement, simply follow the reverse procedure.

How to deactivate the safe lock on a Volkswagen Golf.

The safe lock is indeed an anti-theft system that prevents thieves from accessing the car. This device locks the doors, both externally and internally, when the driver activates the central locking remote control after leaving the vehicle. To permanently disable it, it is necessary to use a diagnostic program such as VCDS that we will connect to the vehicle through the ODBII port. Then wait for the connection and recognition of the control unit and then select the blocks present and locate the safe lock to disable it. And the job will be completed.
