Application and Buying Notes

Confirm the existing starter’s key details before ordering, especially the 12V rating, clockwise rotation, 9 tooth pinion, and Mitsuba style configuration. Part number MXS826 is the most useful identifier when checking against a removed unit, catalogue listing, or workshop record.

The physical dimensions matter as much as the electrical specification. Compare the 99mm mount centres, 70mm flange diameter, 203mm overall length, 29mm pinion diameter, and 33mm pinion at rest against the replacement starter you are removing. The starter mount type is 2 hole, with M12x1.25 / 12 mount holes, so these points should line up with the vehicle’s original arrangement.

OEX notes that low voltage at the starter can cause solenoid contacts to chatter and burn. Before fitting a new starter motor, check battery condition and cables carefully. A weak battery, poor earth, corroded connections, or voltage drop can create symptoms that look like starter failure even when the replacement unit is correct.

This unit is listed as new and carries a warranty of 3 years for passenger use and 1 year for commercial use. Warranty terms are useful, but they do not replace application checking. The safe way to buy a starter motor is to match the part number, rotation, tooth count, mounting pattern, and physical measurements before installation.

Before supply, the safest approach is to confirm the original unit details against the listed part number, voltage, output rating, mounting arrangement, and pulley configuration. That checking process is standard practice in the parts trade because visually similar units can still differ in service-critical ways.

For workshop, fleet, and equipment applications, accurate identification of part number MXS826 helps avoid unnecessary freight, additional labour, and vehicle or machine downtime. Where the application is not straightforward, the original unit, OEM reference, or workshop records should be used as the primary confirmation point.

OEX Starter Motor 12V 9Th CW Mitsuba Style - See Note. Part number MXS826 should be checked first. Listed voltage is 12. These details form the core reference points used by parts interpreters when confirming the correct replacement.

For part number MXS826, the normal identification sequence is part number, electrical rating, mounting arrangement, connector or terminal style, and pulley or drive details. Using those checkpoints helps confirm that the listed unit matches the service requirement rather than only looking similar.

For a starter motor in workshop, fleet, trade, agricultural, or construction service, the listed voltage 12 should be checked carefully. Incorrect selection can affect installation time, return freight, and equipment availability.

Where no verified application list is available, the part number, mounting details, connector style, and published specifications should be used as the primary selection criteria.

In the absence of a verified fitment list, the safest approach is to compare the removed unit directly with the listed product details. That includes checking the housing style, pulley layout, regulator arrangement, and any visible identification numbers before supply is approved.

Compatibility note: Please confirm compatibility by checking the part number MXS826, the 12V clockwise 9 tooth specification, the Mitsuba style fitment, and the listed mounting dimensions against the vehicle or removed starter before ordering.
