How do I change the starter in a 2000 Toyota Camry LE

How do I change out the starter in a 2000 Toyota Camry LE 6-cylinder?

It's an intermittant problem. The car doesn't always start on the first try. When turning the key it acts like a dead battery and just clicks, or the starter will crank then die, or it will crank then have that "free spinning" sound. Sometimes when it does start the engine, the starter is still cranking a second or so after the engine has started.
Just to make sure though, I replaced the battery & cleaned the cable connections. The battery voltage is solid with a load (AC, lights, etc. on with & without the engine running). Even tried starting the car in Neutral with the same results.
So how hard is it to change out the starter in my Camry?

I'm sure it's not the starter itself that is the problem, have the stater's solenoid checked...it might be stucked. It's quite a lot of work removing the starter but you can do it if you are willing enough to learn. You just need the right idea and tools to do it. Hope this will help save you bucks!

Where is my starter located on my 2000 Toyota Camry LE 4 cylinder...When you turn the key it was just a lot of clicking..

Mmmm... this can occur if your battery is very low in power. Make sure your battery is at full power, you can turn your ignition on and view the lights that come on, then turn your headlights on, if the ignition lights dull down you don't have enough battery power. This is just a quick test, if the battery is ok, the starter motor is located at the back of the engine above the gear box.

REMOVING STARTER ON 1994 TOYOTA CAMRY LE (6 CYLINDER), NEED TO KNOW EXACTLY WHERE TO FIND THE STARTER AND HOW TO REMOVE IT AND REPLACE IT

The starter is found under front end.. Near where the moter meets the trani - you will see the flywheel (a big round gear) the starter connects to the flywheel to turn the motor..

Disconnect the battery..
Disconnect wires from starter..
Should be 2 bolts that hold the starter in - remove them..

The starter goes in only one way so you cant mess it up..

Rate well ;o)
