It will be possible to replace the starter motor of the Volkswagen Jetta by opening the hood so that you can have access to the components inside the engine compartment: here you will be able to locate the starter motor at the bottom compared to the engine block, near the flywheel.

Loosening the screws that hold it in place, it will be possible to disconnect the cables connected to it so that it can be removed from its seat: then you can insert the new one in its seat so that it is fixed and connected to verify that everything works correctly.
