Thank you for watching 🫡

My 2001 v6 was a little different ...Just two 13mm Bolts holding it.Got the job done last night.Was a bit unsure of doing it .Thank you very much sir !!! it works GREAT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ty for posting. This video gave me courage. 4wd trucks are a bit tighter than this. Reattaching the bigger wire took some doin'. 10% sorcery. 90% stubborness

I can't seem to fit my starter back in place and my dust cover broke apart. Help me 😂

Thank you!!!!!!! Your video is the only one that keeps it real and straight to the point and no bull!!!! Other guys on here will tell you to take off the wheel and make so difficult to take the starter out of its place. Thank you!!!!!!!!🎉

Actually, the first thing to check would be a starter relay and fuse, not replacing the starter.

This video helped a lot I changed my start on my 01 Silverado single cab I honestly thought it was ganna be a hassle but it took maybe 30 mins tops to take it off and install the new one . I appreciate it 🤘🏽

I would suggest 2 things. One is that you clean up the wire terminals so that they are free of any corrosion. Nice clean metal for optimal electrical flow. The other is to definitely not over tighten the nuts on the starter wires. I had someone over tighten them on a new starter for me, and a few months later the starter needed to be replaced. Over tightening apparently caused damage to wires on the inside. Twisting them off or something.

Thank you sir..bless

I just yanked mine loose on my 2000 Sierra and it’s a whole nother kinda ugly. Mine has a big aluminum knuckle about where the camera is and I can’t even force it back enough to tip the nose one out or even see what it’s hitting on. I’ve owned a lot of old GMs over the last many decades and changed starters on all of them but this beast is something else.😓

I liked this video, especially when you said not to be timid pushing the wires to get the old starter free. But your 03 Silverado and my 05 Yukon Denali are very different: the Denali is 4WD. There is a LOT less room to install my new starter.

@gregc33487

Yeah. I have a 05 Silverado and it’s 4x4. I recently had to replace the crankshaft position sensor and while doing it you have to remove the starter. The sensor is above the starter. Luckily you just need to unbolt and push it out of the way.. But while in there I realized how tough it would be to actually change the starter. And my truck is almost at 212k miles so it’s only a matter of time

@@ERICSDIYGARAGE maybe it a not a 4x4 thing but some of them have 2 transmission cooler lines running very close to the starter. Close enough that you have to push them out of the way to remove the starter/install new one

You don't have to remove the tire on your make and model because you have four-wheel drive and it probably sits a little bit higher. Your video is very educational

Hey bro not sure if you’ll see this since it’s an old video but I changed my starter on my Chevy and when I go to turn it on it cranks for like 5-10 secounds and then turns on any tips on why that could be

Thanks

Great video it's helped frfr

question. i have an 05 Chevy Silverado 2500 HD. Alternator has been recently replaced as of less than a month, refurbished Duralast, battery is a yellow cap Optima. recently her start has been sluggish, charged the battery assuming it was that. it was fine for a bit but started the sluggish start again after .. a week, and there’s times where it’s super sluggish, like a full 1 mississippi and a half second type of start. now she’s starting up again with the slug start and i’ve charged this battery twice at this point. she’s not being nice with me pero la tengo chiquiada. 😭

I tried changing mine but one the screws wouldn’t go in, any help?

Is process the same on 6.0 3500?

Great expliation good job

Looks like you had a bad solenoid. Probably did not need to replace the whole starter, especially after you tapped it and it started.
