Product Details

Denso reman starters are built from the brand’s OE electrical component experience and remanufactured to restore starting performance with controlled testing and replacement procedures. The 280-0278 follows Denso First Time Fit reman standards, making it a practical choice for drivers and repair shops servicing Toyota Celica starting-system repairs. This part cross-references Toyota (e.g., 28100-22080) for the same application.

Compatible With 2000 Toyota Celica, N/A; 2001-2005 Toyota Celica, N/A. Use this Denso starter when replacing a worn unit on a Toyota Celica with 1.4 kW output requirements, including the 2000 Celica with VVTL-I and the 2001-2005 Celica reman starter application.

What It Helps Solve

• Slow or weak engine cranking
• No-start conditions caused by starter wear
• Intermittent starting from worn brushes or terminals
• Electrical resistance from aged starter components
• Cold-weather or heat-related starting difficulty

Installation Notes

Verify the vehicle’s voltage, starter rotation, and power rating before installation. Confirm the Toyota Celica application against the original starter number and inspect battery condition, cable connections, and charging-system output during replacement. The starter position is listed as N/A for these applications.

Quality Assurance

Denso remanufactured starters are subjected to high-voltage testing, component replacement, and bench testing to confirm output before release. The reman process is designed to deliver consistent OE-style performance while reusing serviceable materials responsibly.
