This DIY snowblower repair guide explains how to replace the electric starter. Make sure the engine spins normally by pulling the recoil starter rope before replacing the starter; if the engine is locked up, the electric starter won't spin the engine. If the starter won't spin to start the engine when activated and is plugged into a working wall outer, replace the electric starter using the manufacturer-approved snowblower part.
Replace the electric starter on Craftsman, Husqvarna, MTD, Troybilt, Murray, Poulan, Ariens, Snapper, Yard-Man and Noma snowblowers using the steps in this guide.
