Chevrolet Equinox Starter

The Chevrolet Equinox Starter is crucial in order to turn electrical energy from the battery into mechanical energy in order to start the engine. It works with an externally mounted solenoid which is connected to the battery to engage the starter motor. In the starter, there is a rotating armature which is provided with field coils or permanent magnets to produce the required torque. It meshes with the flywheel of the engine when the ignition is on and uses an overrunning clutch which releases when the engine has begun running. Over time, a number of starters have been installed in Equinox vehicles this include the gear reduction starters which increase efficiency of the vehicle. Although OE starters seem to be built to handle standard engines, they can have have problems with high compression motors and as such, may fail. Some specific changes to starters include the gear reduction systems which have enhanced performance of altered engine vehicles.

Each OEM Chevrolet Equinox Starter we offer is competitively priced and comes with the assurance of the manufacturer's warranty for the part. Furthermore, we guarantee the speedy delivery of your orders right to your doorstep. Our hassle-free return policy is also in place for your peace of mind.
