Snowblower Electric Starter Repair

This component is a standard on many snowblower engines. There are several choices if the electric starter needs to be repaired. You can attempt to repair the unit by troubleshooting to find out what is wrong. Or you can just replace the entire component. Home mechanics will find that it is very easy to remove the electric starter motor from the engine housing. Remove 2 or 3 bolts. The sprocket should move out along the shaft easily. If not you need to lubricate this area to ensure that it does move freely. Next, you need to make sure that the push button switch is actually making a connection and closing the circuit. Use a volt ohmmeter to test it. It is easy to complete snowblower electric starter repairs.

You will need the make and model number of your snowblower to order the correct module. Once it arrives, install it on your snowblower engine following the same  process you used to remove it in reverse.

Trying to start some of the larger snowblower engines using the pull chord is almost impossible unless you have a perfectly tuned engine.
