Hey Folks, in this video I show you how to replace install a new starter on your 1999-2006 Chevy Silverado Truck or other GM trucks. The worst part of this process was taking the starter out, take the time and pull off the tire and remove the plastic wheel fender cover so you can reach in better to remove the starter. Next you need to remove the battery cable it's a 13mm socket remove that so you can have more room to back the starter up towards the engine. After this video you will be up and running and driving again in no time.

I just did mine on a 2003 GMC Sierra. These tips saved me a BUNCH of time. The wires can come off with some LONG extensions (my ratchet was out near the compressor with a universal joint near the starter). Biggest savings was removing the inner fender lining - great tip whoever suggested that. I had the truck running again in 90 minutes ish.

Just replaced starter in 2004 Chevy Silverado 2500HD. Summary of steps: 1-Disconnect battery cables. 2-Unfasten & roll plastic housing toward front of tire. (passenger side) 3-Using 1/2" socket wrench, remove large cable from starter. 4-Using 5/16" socket wrench, remove small cable from starter. 5-From under truck, remove 2 bolts from starter using 1/2" socket wrench & extensions. 6-Remove starter. 7-Install new starter & re-install 2 bolts. 8-Connect large cable to starter. 9-Connect small cable to starter. 10-Connect cables to battery. (Positive first.) 11-Test starter by starting truck. 12-Roll/fold plastic housing around tire back into place & secure. ***I didn't need to remove oil dipstick tube. ***I didn't need any metric wrenches. Thanks for video. This just summarizes for easy referral.

Just removed mine from a 2006 chevy 2500hd 6.0 L and i didn't have any issues getting the starter out (after bolts off almost fell out straight down) Getting to the nuts on the solenoid was easy, had plenty of clearance. I guess you're working on a different year. Great, to the point video dude. Why people don’t understand how to just perform the task with minimal talking i will never know.

Wasn't enough clearance to slide the 13mm socket on the nut. Use a wrench to just barely loosen it and then the socket went on. Was really pretty easy thanks to these guy's who filmed how to do it and put it on YT.

I just did the starter on a 2001 Chevy Silverado 1500. 2WD 5.3L I know taking off the tire and taking loose the wheel well shield seems easier to get your hand up in there, but to be honest, if you just get the two wires loose before taking the starter off, it is simple after that. You can get those two wires off the starter, from down below ,with a baby (1/4") ratchet, (handle up towards manifold for turning room) with a shallow well 13 mm and shallow well 8 mm. When you take the starter loose & pop out the two long bolts, rotate the starter 180° and then tip the rear up into the engine, towards the exhaust manifold and push it back a little, so that the rounded end will come out first, down towards the ground & then the replacing is the reverse order. Saves you from having to remove the tire & wheel well shield loosening. Wish I had done a video on this today, but hopefully it cuts your time down for replacing the starter. I still gave a thumbs up for the video

HUGE TIP FOR THE END PUTTING IT BACK IN. I was fighting it just like in the video to put it back in, I ended up sticking a prybar between the front (non torpedo side) and the control arm and forced it in. It went right in after that. So if yours is getting caught on the control arm right there, just jam a pry bar in there and it should help alot.

When putting starter back in, you have to twist the starter slightly towards the wheel while pulling it in and then straighten it out once it's in. I 110% Agree with taking tire off and pulling shield partially out of the way. These are the worst damn starters to replace or remove if you have to replace crankshaft position sensor. Make sure you have some Xanex on hand also, that helps!!

Thanks for the video it helped so much. I learned a lot and save about $350 in labor. I have a 2001 z71 5.3L and it was exactly like this.I found a couple of tricks along the way. For the two bolts that could be accessed through the wheel well I used about 18inches worth of extenders and an elbow and got to them without taking the wheel off. I slid the heat shield off through the wheel well also, this gave more clearance whe I took the starter out. I did have to put the socket and extensions on from under the vehicle and the attach the ratchet through the wheel well. Putting it back on I attached the 8mm first but I used bricks to prop up the starter so I didn't have to hold it up after connecting. I slipped it in there and found it easier to get the torpedo end in first and the bring the back in from above due to the transmission casing. Just had to move the silver metal lines a bit. Then I bolted it in and attached the 13mm from under the truck, the slide the washer and nut on through the wheel well. Then I put the socket and extensions on from under and tightened through the wheel well. I even was able to slide the heat shield on after everything else through the wheel well and adjusted in to place from underneath.

Just did this myself, here are some tips.. REMOVE battery cables FIRST! and then you need a: #8 or 5/16 (deep), 10, 13, (13 DEEP SOCKET) and maybe a 14 mm plus a few extensions. the #8 or 5/16 socket should be deep and preferably the 1/4" ratchet size. All others can be the 3/8" ratchet size but I did find the #10 to be easier in the 1/4" size as well. Large bolts holding the starter on are 13mm.. When re-installing DO NOT crank down too tight on the power or signal wires that go on the solenoid or you can easily brake it! be gentle as you are removing it, if it's not coming out you are likely hitting the trans lines, trans dipstick, the block, the oil sensor etc... but it does and will pull out with ease, back first, then wire end up, then gear side that was in the flywheel should face down, at that point you will be able to undo the smaller signal wire first, then the main larger power wire. Also, remember to clean the ring connectors with a wire brush or a little sand paper if needed for a better connection before re-installing.

Thanks for a detailed video. 2006 Escalade ESV. The trick of removing the wheel well was great. I literally pulled the old one out and put the new one into place in about 15 minutes, just using both hands to move it around and twist it, tight, but doable. The longest part was the setup, prepping, etc, but worth it for the aggravation and muscling I would have had to do. The only hard part was really tightening the 8mm nut cause I wasn't sure the position, but seriously, awesome video, you saved me time, effort, and as I said aggravation!!

Maybe I'm weird or there's something different about my 2000 silverado 2500. But I just drove it up on the ramps, and reached up from underneath without removing anything extra. I can remove both wires before touching the bottom bolts, then unscrew the bottom ones and finagle just a bit and she comes out. Took me 20 minutes for a full swap. Probably helps to have my wife inside praying 😂

On 4.3 there's no need to take wheel off or fender liner. Just did this in a gravel driveway with plastic ramps from autozone. It's about a 30 to 40 minute job. Take battery cable off, take 2 13mm starter bolts out, pull starter and twist so you can get to 8mm and 13mm nuts for wires and remove and replace in reverse. Easiest starter I've ever replaced. Oh, and the blue plug, you'll need to get a flat head screwdriver behind the black end of it and gently pop it up and out it will come.

I've done a few starters back in my teens without much problem. Recently, however I pulled the starter from my 01 Silverado in order to get to the crankshaft position sensor and change it out. I probably didn't have to disconnect the wires but this was my first attempt on this vehicle. Whenever I took things apart I didn't take note on how the heat shield should be attached so I guessed at it. Big mistake! Since then the vehicle would start okay about half the time and when it didn't I had to get out of my vehicle and move the shield with a screwdriver until it was in a position enough that the vehicle would start. Then finally today the shield shorted and started a small fire. Fortunately I was able to somehow get the fire out with the same screwdriver. I probably moved the shield off enough to stop the short. Fortunately I was able to drive the vehicle to a tire and mechanic shop just in time for them to service my vehicle before closing. They said the starter was bad or going bad so I let them replace it. About a $400 repair bill but at least it's fixed and I shouldn't have to worry about it for a long time now. Yes it is a royal pain in the rear to work replace those things. Well done at Shore Tire in Lenexa, KS!

Easiest way is to remove heat shield on solenoid, remove bolts holding 2 aluminium tubes to engine just forward of starter and undo 2 plastic clips holding wires to the same bracket for 2 aluminum tubes. Starter then can be removed easily. You can undo small and large electric wires after getting starter out.

When I had to do the crankshaft position sensor on my truck I realized how much of a B it would be to get the starter all the way out. Luckily you only have to unbolt and push the starter out of the way for the sensor. But my truck is high mileage so when that starter goes I know it’s gonna be a pain to replace. Thanks for the video tho. Idk if those are trans cooler lines or what running next to the starter but damaging them is my biggest fear because it’s tight in there

Hey guys I just replaced my starter in my 02 Silverado 1500hd. It took 2- 2.5 hrs. I did not use a jack or jack stands kind of for an experiment. It can be done lol It wasn’t that bad. I used a deep socket for the 13mm bolts (with extensions) and a 9/16 wrench for the single small nut. It all went smoother than expected. the worst part was tightening the wire nuts. I suggest using a long ratchet and wrench for those. and going from the wheel well is the best way like the vid. I didn’t remove the wheel well plastic lol I always have trouble with those clips. Good luck. My truck starts instantly now. ⚡️

I would have pressure washed it prior to even touching that area. I have to do mine since I believe that the starter was sticking and then the vehicle had taken five turns of the key to finally start. I made it to the house and thought that I would find a video to see if someone had a better way. Removing the wheel well plastics and the tire will probably do the trick...thanks for posting

Yes, absolutely disconnect your battery cables. Unless you want to. Weld your wrench to your starters

ANYBODY READING THE COMMENT DO ONE MORE THING. There is a small sheet metal shield just below the starter on the transmission held by one small bolt. TAKE IT OFF. Starter slips right out and in.

They do that intentionally,so you have to take it to a shop, especially to a dealer. That's what Tesla will avoid any warranty if you trying to do any work by yourself.
