First you have to locate it. As you are looking down it should be to your left. From under the car you will have to take off the two or three bolts that hold it to the engine after you disconnect the power leads. MAKE SURE TO DISCONNECT BATTERY FIRST. Once you have the power leads off and the bolts loosened you take the starter out. Depending on how it sits in there you may have to turn the wheels one way or another to get it out. Then simple reverse the process with the new starter and you are ready to go.

How to replace starter for 2001 Ford Explorer directions

Disconnect all cables connected to the input, including the ground wire to the stud starter, starter cable and connector valve. Remove the starter mounting bolts, starting with the upper bolts and insert them into the jar to preserve them for later. Then remove the starter motor. Place the new starter in place and install mounting screws. Tighten the mounting screw. Replace the nut on the starter cable to the port B of the solenoid. Tighten the nut between 80 to 123 inch-pounds (9 to 14 Nm). Close the additional wiring to the starter and replace the red cap.

Starter spins but wont engage, could it be a fuse

HUH??? The electrical circuit is working and you think there is a blown fuse?
NO! there is a MECHANICAL problem with your starter like a broken bendix or a chewed-up flywheel. You need to remove your starter motor and inspect the teeth on your flywheel. Look through the starter hole and turn the engine by hand so you can inspect the teeth all the way around. I usually mark the flywheel with a marking pen before I start turning it so I can tell when I have gone all the way around. If the teeth are all in decent condition, replace the starter. If you find any broken/damaged teeth, you need to pull your transmission and replace the flywheel. (AND probably replace the starter anyway.)

Will not crank , can jump at starter , but want star with ignition switch .

Replace the ignition switch...

But! If you are turning the key and you are not getting anything from the starter, then replace the starter.

Another words, if you are turning the key and there is NO noise at all coming from the starter, then replace the ignition switch.

If there is SOME noise/clicking or anything, replace the starter.

I think the starter is going out on my 2002 sport track. Could it be just the cellanoid? Cam i fix that or do i replace the whole starter?

I would have liked to know more about why you think the starter is going.

You can buy replacement parts for a starter, but generally we buy a remanufactured starter, and simply replace the unit.

Remanufactured starter is about $100
