Before installing the starter motor for the 3.3/3.8L engine, place the starter spacer, flange outwards, on the transaxle bellhousing. Then, put your starter on your bellhousing and then snap it on with bolts and your ground wire, as well. The starter solenoid B+ terminal must be connected to the solenoid connector and backed up with a nut that holds the B+ terminal to the starter solenoid. Lower the vehicle, connect the negative battery cable and check that the starter works.

How to Remove the Starter Motor from 3.3L and 3.8L Engines on Chrysler Town & Country?

Place engine support tool 8534-12 or an alternative on the gearbox before removing the starter motor for 3.3L or 3.8L engines. Separate and remove the battery cable from its negative side at the battery, then loosen and pull the battery cable and its nut from the solenoid stud. Take out the connection between the starter solenoid and the electrical system. Fitters are to remove the transmission to starter mounting bolt with a vehicle that has a six-speed automatic gearbox. Following that, take out the bolts holding the front transmission mount to starter bolt and remove the starter assembly as needed while rotating the part out of the transmission.

The Chrysler Town & Country Starter transforms your vehicle's battery energy into mechanical power to start the engine. The Starter consists of an armature that rotates in the magnetic field of field coils or permanent magnets. The brushes and commutator arrangement are provided at the front end while the drive unit is at the rear end. All this arrangement is carried out in a metal case. The safety switch in the control circuit of Town & Country vehicles prevents activation when the transmission is not in neutral or park. The unit connects to the battery via a heavy-gauge cable. A solenoid, mounted externally, receives a low-current signal from the ignition switch via a relay and then bridges battery voltage to the motor. When electromagnetic action is applied, the armature will spin. This turns the Starter drive gear that engages with the engine flywheel or flexplate. An overrunning clutch then disengages the drive gear after the engine fires, preventing damage. The design may be for a direct drive motor or possibly for a gear reduction Starter whereby armature torque gets routed through reduction gears for better cranking ability. Chrysler Town & Country demands this synchronized electrical and mechanical process, as the Chrysler Town & Country Starter function is vital to overall Chrysler electrical operation and performance.
