• Q: How to remove the starter motor on 2008 Scion xB?

  A: Starting the starter motor removal process requires disconnecting the negative battery terminal cable first. Start by disconnecting the mass air flow meter connector along with loosening the hose clamp, unlocking the air cleaner assembly clamp before you can take off the cap. Next step is to remove the air cleaner filter element sub-assembly from inside the air cleaner case sub-assembly. Detach the wire harness clamp before removing 3 bolts from the air cleaner case sub-assembly. The manual transaxle maintenance requires technician to remove the terminal 50 connector from starter assembly followed by unfastening the wire harness nut from terminal 30 and then removing 3 bolts to separate clutch flexible hose bracket and starter assembly. Start by disconnecting terminal 50 connector from the starter assembly before removing the nut to separate the wire harness from terminal 30. Remove the 2 bolts and starter assembly as the next step.
