Key Features

• 12.0-volt starter with clockwise rotation
• 1.4 kW power rating for strong cranking output
• Denso OE family reman starter construction
• High-voltage tested armature and field coils
• Premium copper terminals for stable electrical current
• New bearings, brushes, and seals
• Bench-tested for factory-original performance

Detailed Description

Denso reman starters are rebuilt with attention to the electrical and mechanical parts that affect starting performance. Armatures and field coils are high-voltage tested, commutators are refinished and validated, and terminals and fasteners are replaced with copper components. The result is a remanufactured starter designed to deliver consistent cranking torque and reliable operation in everyday driving conditions.

This Denso 280-0191 starter is a fitment-based replacement for 1994-1997 Honda Accord and 1997 Acura CL vehicles. It cross-references Honda 31200-P0A-003 and Bosch SR1313X for the same application.

What This Starter Helps Address

• Slow or weak engine cranking
• No-start conditions caused by starter failure
• Intermittent starting due to worn internal electrical components
• Voltage loss at the starter terminals
• Noise or rough operation from worn bearings or brushes

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle’s year, make, model, and starter rotation before installation. Confirm that the electrical connections, mounting points, and battery condition are in good order, since low battery voltage or corroded cables can mimic starter failure. This starter is listed for 1994-1997 Honda Accord and 1997 Acura CL applications, so match the part number 280-0191 to the vehicle before service.

Quality Assurance

Denso remanufactured starters are bench-tested after rebuilding to confirm performance before release. The reman process includes testing of key electrical components and replacement of wear items such as bearings, brushes, and seals to support consistent operation. Denso’s OE background in starter technology informs the design and remanufacturing standards used in this unit.
