You can Select Your Vehicle to check if 28100-50090 fits your vehicle.

Installation is the reverse of removal. Be sure to tighten the starter motor mounting bolts securely.

Remove and check the starter/solenoid assembly on the bench. The solenoid is likely defective. Check if the engine is seized by attempting to rotate the crankshaft pulley. With the starter/solenoid assembly mounted in a vise, connect jumper cables to test the solenoid. If the solenoid plunger extends and rotates the pinion drive, the assembly is working properly. If it extends but does not rotate, the starter motor is defective. If there is no movement but the solenoid clicks, either the solenoid or the starter motor is defective.

In VB models with 4.7L (2UZ-FE) engines, the starter is located on top of the engine between the cylinder heads, underneath the upper intake manifold. To remove it, you will need to remove the upper intake manifold.
