The correct hardware is necessary for the prescribed attachment. The catalog designation above must be matched to the original part number; it does not make this bolt interchangeable with every M12 fastener.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA starter can use different bolts at its mounting points. N91129601 is the long fastener for its assigned position, while another position can require a different length or thread. Compare the actual starter and gearbox arrangement before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCommon reasons to replace\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eInspect the mounting bolts when removing or replacing the starter or performing work that requires it to be detached. Replace missing hardware, damaged threads, rounded head surfaces, deformation or corrosion that prevents correct installation. Follow any factory requirement to renew removed fasteners.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePrevious starter replacement can leave incorrect hardware or a bolt that has been forced into damaged threads. Inspect both the fastener and the mounting point. A replacement bolt cannot restore a stripped transmission-case thread or repair a damaged starter mounting flange.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSlow cranking, no-crank operation or starting noise requires diagnosis of the starting system. This is mounting hardware and does not replace the starter motor, solenoid, battery, cables or control circuit. Correct the diagnosed fault and inspect the mounting arrangement during repair.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eInstallation and service notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse the factory starter removal and installation procedure for the exact vehicle, engine and transmission. Follow the prescribed electrical isolation steps before working at the starter power connections. Support the starter during removal rather than leaving its weight on the wiring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIdentify each mounting position and compare the original fastener. Inspect the starter flange, transmission-case seating surfaces and mating threads. Ensure the starter is the correct component for the fitted engine and gearbox.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSeat the starter correctly and start the assigned bolt by hand in undamaged threads. Do not use the bolt to pull a misaligned starter into place or overcome abnormal resistance. Other bolts, brackets and electrical connection hardware must also match their specified positions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEngage a correctly sized twelve-point socket fully on the head. Follow the factory tightening sequence, thread preparation and tightening requirement for the attachment. Do not substitute a general M12 torque value or a specification from another starter configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eObserve all wiring routing and cable securing requirements during reassembly. Confirm the electrical terminals and protective covers are restored as prescribed and that no cable is trapped by the starter or mounting hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter assembly, complete the required starting-system checks and confirm normal starter operation.
