@@crisprtalk6963 Interesting. Are you able to manually extract the pinion gear by holding the gear slightly and then turning the drive shaft and seeing if it drives outward?
Thanks for the comment Wilmar, that's a good idea. Unfortunately, the depth gauge on my caliper was too fat to fit in the gap between the commutator segments though. Maybe some calipers have a thinner depth gauge though...
Thanks for the comment. You can get the replacement starter parts for the rebuild right from Honda! Most of the online Honda distributors stock these (www.hondaautomotiveparts.com, www.hondapartsnow.com, www.bernardiparts.com, etc.).
buen dia, usted tiene idea si la bobina del automatico se puede retirar del cabezal del motor de arrnaque para retirar el piñon y eje frontal (impulsor)? gracias!
Good question. The official Honda service manual is now only available online and is at: techinfo.honda.com/ Unfortunately, you do have to pay for access and the 1-day access recently went up from $10 to $30. This is where I get service information referenced in any of my videos as I like to ensure it is as accurate as possible when putting it out there for others.
@JohnsDIY What I discovered is that most of these modern day starters the starter drive isn't serviceable, the housing that holding the starter drive is welded on, so unless you're planning on cutting through it by some means, then you can't get access.... I took an old Honda starter apart earlier and that what I discovered, I'm gonna look further into it later though....
@@freeman573 Interesting, yep, that's what it looks like in this case. The service manual doesn't mention anything about it and it is sold as an assembly. I'd definitely be curious if you learn anything further!
i have an intermittent no start problem. It clicks but won't start on occasionally. Do you recommend replacing just the solenoid or the complete brush assembly ? Thx
The solenoid itself (coil) is not replaceable. However, the contact that energizes the starter is replaceable which could be your issue. However, if you are tearing it apart, I'd probably replace the contact as well as the brush assembly. But you could take it apart and see how much length is left in the brushes and just replace them if there is little brush length left.
The only video I have seen so far that goes into checking the solenoid. This is the best starter rebuild video on TH-cam. Well done.
Thanks very much for the nice comment! Appreciate it!
@@JohnsDIY My solenoid would pull down the plunger down with 12 volts but the pinion gear will not go up. What would cause this?
@@crisprtalk6963 Interesting. Are you able to manually extract the pinion gear by holding the gear slightly and then turning the drive shaft and seeing if it drives outward?
@@JohnsDIY Yes. It goes up.
@@crisprtalk6963 Is the starter currently disassembled? If so, does the plunger move up and down freely?
Very well done educational video. You must have an electronic engineer or technician background.
Thanks much for the nice comment! You are correct, I am an electrical engineer working in power electronics!
Best video on TH-cam to rebuild starter
Thanks for the nice comment! Appreciate that!
The calipers have a depth gauge that slides out the bottom that can measure the commutator mica depth.🤫

Excellent John. Very clear and concise. Greetings from San Diego. Thanks for the illustration.
Thanks for the nice comment Arturo! Greetings back to you from New Hampshire!!
Nice where can you buy starter kits for these honda crv. In the usa

If you are a rebuilder shop. A kit costs you like $ 8 dollars.

Specifically what "service manual" are you referring to?

Valen gaver xke nadie enseña como kitar el bendix
How to know if my starter have problem bc when I start it start but it make noise one second and it goes
Better than dealership rebuild! Great job!
Thanks for the nice comment! Appreciate it!
Great work 👏👏
How about removal of the starter pinion drive bushing, that's what I want to see, HOW TO...
Yeah, that's a good question! I wish I knew as well. Please share if you figure it out!

Thanks, so would i....
Will keep searching.

Brush assembly, the click is the solenoid working.
