Thank you so much for posting this. Swapping this out for a friend today. I didn't look it up till just now i was i like NO way i have to take off the intake manifold.... Now i would need to order gaskets . Not anymore bcuz of this vidoe !!
This video is a lifesaver! Why in the world did Honda recommend taking out the intake manifold? (It's in the factory service manual too.) How long did this take you to do?
My jazz is making a scraping noise when starting . Its worse in the cold , once the engine has been started and warmed up it doesnt do it until the next morning when its sat cold again . In summer its alot less often. Its failed to start once when i didnt drive for a whole day .
@AutoScholarwithMrB one day mine just failed to start until I kept doing it on and off and it did then start. Worried about the flywheel to be honest now .
"just reverse the process to install it" dammit. I cant get my starter back in. Stops half an inch from being fully seated. Cant find out why its hanging up. Its the same starter, just replaced the transmission. Ive spun the flywheel/torque converter a ton of times and it wont seat.
Hi i cant find ANY information anywhere about how to replace the specific STARTER TO BATTERY CABLE for honda fit (2012). Everyone talks about replacing starter or replacing battery terminals but nothing about the battery cable that goes down all the way to the starter. Can you help?
I followed your video exactly- it was the clearest one, thanks! But now the car won't start at all... (It was still starting before but was making the same noise as yours). I checked the plugs were all reinstalled, but I'm getting nothing, not even turning over. What are the chances i have a bad starter? (Rebuilt Bosch- couldn't find one new.)

I can do this in probably an hour or so.

That is what this one was doing, but it never failed to start.

Great video. Can I do this with just my front tires on ramps?
Yes!
Is the stater for Fit 2011 is the Rotary version?
Mine is Honda Fit 2007. Can it work on my car?
I am not sure on that.

Most cases swapping a cable like that wouldn’t be necessary..

Could be bad, you can remove and test at most auto part stores. Sorry you are having trouble!
Also, this one came from Amazon and I’ve had no issues. The link is in the description.
Yall do I seriously have to remove all that stuff?
It looks like there’s plenty of space from the bottom to wiggle that out
What I want to know 😂
