005 151 65 01 – Starter, Solenoid Switch OE by Mercedes-Benz

Description

0051516501 – Starter, pinion, solenoid switch OE number by Mercedes-Benz
This electrical motor is responsible for converting electrical energy from the battery into mechanical energy to rotate the engine’s crankshaft to initiate the combustion process. It features an integrated solenoid that engages the starter’s pinion gear with the flywheel ring gear upon ignition activation. Once the engine starts, an overrunning clutch allows the pinion to spin freely until it is retracted, protecting the motor from the engine’s higher RPM.
Specifications:
12V operating voltage, 1.4 kW power rating, 10-tooth pinion gear, and clockwise rotation.
