Factory Mopar Starters

You can get a car starter from Mopar one of two ways, either remanufactured or new. It can be called a self-starter, a starter motor, or a cranking motor, too. Whichever your vehicle has, how it works is it uses a dedicated starter motor and starter relay to crank or start your vehicle's engine. That's how a vehicle starts and stays running. Remote starters do this job without a key turn, with the press of a button on a smart key fob.

When a starter won't turn or crank at all, however -- or, at least, it won't do it reliably -- it's usually because it's going out. That is, if its parts haven't gone bad already. Luckily, starter failure has easily identifiable causes, including damaged parts, terminal corrosion, and loose wires. Just as fortunately, it's easy to spot starter issues before it's too late. They include being unable to start at all (even if your dash lights and displays are lit), only being able to start in certain gears or drive modes, failed jump-starts, and a smoking or an oil-covered starter. In any such cases, do an inspection to see if your starter's actually the problem.
