POSSIBLE CAUSE

Centering bush, dowel not inserted into mounting hole, or placed into correct hole.

RECTIFICATION

The starter is centred by way of the fitting hole and the dowel. When the started is fitted, care must be taken to ensure that the dowel is located in the drive end bracket and in the clutch housing respectively. The dowel must be placed in the same hole as the defective starter which has been removed (e.g. Renault C-Motor outside and Renault F-Motor inside). Make sure that the dowel has not become jammed in the mounting flange of the removal starter.
