On some vehicles, it may be necessary to remove the exhaust pipe(s) or frame cross-member to gain access to the starter motor. In extreme cases, it may even be necessary to unbolt the mounts and raise the engine slightly to get the starter out. To begin, detach the cable from the negative terminal of the battery, ensuring that the lockout feature is turned off if applicable. Next, raise the front of the vehicle and support it securely on jackstands, applying the parking brake and blocking the rear wheels. Remove the mounting bolts and detach the starter, taking note of the locations of any spacer shims. Under the vehicle, label and disconnect the wires from the terminals on the starter motor and solenoid. Finally, installation is the reverse of removal.

It may indicate burned solenoid contacts, a bad starter motor, discharged battery, or a bad connection.

Remove the oil filter splash shield.

If the solenoid plunger cannot be heard when the switch is actuated, it could indicate a bad battery, burned fusible link, or defective solenoid.
