• Q: How to Service and Repair a Starter Motor on 2008 Toyota Yaris?

  A: Start the 1NZ-FE starter motor (1.6 kW Type) servicing and repair by disconnecting the lead wire from the magnet switch body and removal of its securing nut followed by unfastening the two screws maintaining it in place to the starter drive housing assembly before removing the magnet switch body with return spring and plunger. First detach the starter yoke assembly through removing its two through bolts before pulling both parts together then separating the starter yoke from the commutator end frame assembly. The starter commutator end frame cover can be detached through the use of a screwdriver. The starter armature assembly requires snap ring pliers for removing the snap ring and plate washer before extraction from the commutator end frame assembly. Complete the first step by removing the starter armature plate from the starter yoke assembly then proceed with taking out the three planetary gears afterward. You should first separate the drive lever set pin from the starter drive housing assembly with the starter center bearing clutch sub-assembly followed by removing this same sub-assembly altogether.
