Absolutely awesome video thank you so much for your help! We were able to swap out our starter this afternoon and yours by far was the easiest method to do so.
Just changed out my starter. Thank you for this video. It helped a lot. I left the battery tray on because the bolts underneath were a real pain to try to loosen.
Thanks for watching the video and what the situation was one day it didn't start I jump it and took it to auto zone they did the battery test and the battery was good, however it started on its own for about 2 weeks then it didn't want to start so when I went to jump it again I noticed that the starter wasn't even making the click sound so that's when I figured it had to be the starter because I did another battery test and it was still good, when I took the starter off the " starter drive gear" inside the starter was stuck in the out position so I knew it was bad, I replaced it and it's been running ever since
I don’t think so I believe you have to remove the starter from underneath the car or remove the intake to get to the starter of the 2.4 Honda. Sorry hope this helps.
Question... What was your car doing to know for sure the starter was the issue? Mine will start but there are times that it does absolutely nothing when I try and start it. Battery, starter and alternator test come back normal at auto zone. I've checked all the cables too. I'm thinking of removing the starter just to go get it tested. Thoughts? Thanks in advance
Vince Tonthat I use a power probe for my fuses and if I'm checking the starter relay, use another relay that you know works for example use your horn relay in the place of your starter relay to see if it works
I️ will be the 1st to say those 2 bolts under the battery plate are bitches to get out the angles and tightness are both giving me troubles right now... and the size of the bolts underneath are both 12mm not 3/8mm thanks for the video tho

No problem glad I was able to help you out
2:14 this explanation saved me a lot of frustration. Thank you for posting this video
Great video! May I suggest a laser pointer if you do anymore? You'll be able to point things out without your hand blocking anything!
Thanks for the suggestion will do next time

Will be attempting this tomorrow! Wish me luck boys
Just replaced the same starter, those bolts on the bracket we’re the hardest part. Had to create a rigged extension bar but we broke em loose!!!
This video was good enough that it might just make me confident enough to undertake this task....that could be a bit scarey..thanks for the video
Is the starter located in the same exact place for a 2.4 L engine of the same 2005 Honda accord?

How did you loosen the bolts under the battery tray? How did you get to them?
chooseanameforme888 sorry for not responding quickly I believe I use a 3/8 ratchet and I put the socket on the bolt, it was the short handle
10 & 12 mm he use broke loose the bolts but did not remove them
Check your relays if you don't want to take the starter out first
I have a 2005 Honda Accord, 6 cyl vtec. Which starter would you recommend I buy? I keep seeing negative reviews on the duralast starters.
