MPA Electrical 12871 Starter

Remanufactured Starter for OE-Style Replacement

MPA Electrical Part Number 12871 is a remanufactured 12-volt starter built for OE fit, form, and function. It uses a Mitsubishi family design with a 1.7 power rating, clockwise rotation, and a pad mount for direct replacement service on supported Chevrolet and GMC applications.

The MPA Electrical Remanufactured line focuses on starter and charging components rebuilt in TS16949 certified facilities. That process supports consistent fitment and dependable operation for drivers replacing a worn starter on Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra, and related trucks and vans.
