Mercury F89Z-11V002-BARM Starter Motor Assembly

You can Select Your Vehicle to check if F89Z-11V002-BARM fits your vehicle.

Ensure that the battery is completely charged before diagnosing starter problems. Check if the switch operates the starter and if the shift lever is in either Neutral or Park. Ascertain that the battery is charged; and that all cables at the battery and starter solenoid terminals are secured. In case of a spin, with no engine turnover replace the starter. In addition, check the battery solenoid contacts or line connections when there is no response from your starter although its solenoid clicks. If not, then most likely you have got a discharged battery. Look at whether it was charged and afterwards inspect starter relay circuit or substitute for relay if so needed. Remove the electrical connector to test the starter relay circuit and ensure clean contacts with a firm connection. If by chance you have all these then simply use a jumper wire to test the operation of the relay. The starter is good if it works with a jumper wire. Otherwise, replace the solenoid as well as another attempt for starting should be made.

The installation process is the reverse of removal.

Install the starter motor in the reverse order of removal. Tighten the starter bolts to the specified torque.

Remove and discard them.

For early models, specific checks involve examining the starter relay circuit, testing its operation with a jumper wire, and assessing starter relay contacts.

If the starter motor spins but the engine doesn't turn over, the drive assembly in the starter motor may be slipping, and the starter motor should be replaced.
