Q: How to remove and install a starter motor on a Chevrolet Cobalt,HHR and Saturn ION?
A: Turn the ignition key to OFF, then disconnect the cable from the negative battery terminal. Raise the front of the vehicle and place it securely on jackstands. On 2.0L Supercharged models only, drain the intercooler coolant system and remove the intercooler system electric water pump. Disconnect the Battery Cable (the larger cable) and the starter control cable (the smaller cable) from the starter solenoid terminals. Remove the starter mounting bolts and remove the starter. On 2007 and later models, you may have to remove the Secondary Air Injection pump to allow room for starter removal. Installation is the reverse of removal. Tighten the starter mounting bolts. When the battery has been disconnected, the PCM must relearn its former driveability and performance characteristics.
