🔌 Function

The starter engages the flywheel and rotates the outboard powerhead until it starts. Correct rotation and pinion-tooth count are essential because a similar housing can be supplied with a different drive.

Common signs of failure:

• No crank or intermittent crank

• Slow motor speed or excessive battery-cable heating

• Pinion spins without engagement

• Grinding from incorrect tooth count or flywheel damage

• Worn brushes, solenoid contacts or armature bushings

• Internal corrosion, water entry or burnt windings

📦 Condition

• Brand-new aftermarket replacement starter motor

• New and unused

• Supplied in suitable manufacturer or equivalent protective packaging
