Starter for Jeep TJ and Wrangler

MPA Electrical 17874N is a 12-volt starter built for 2003-2006 Jeep TJ and 2003-2006 Jeep Wrangler applications. It uses a permanent magnet gear reduction design with a 1.4 kW rating and a clockwise rotation pattern for the specified fitments.

  • Permanent magnet gear reduction starter design
  • 1.4 kW output rating
  • 12-volt electrical system
  • Clockwise rotation
  • 11-tooth drive configuration
  • Manufactured by Mitsubishi
  • MPA Electrical part number 17874N

Product Details

This MPA Electrical starter is specified for Jeep TJ and Jeep Wrangler models from 2003 through 2006. The permanent magnet gear reduction layout is used to deliver compact starter packaging with controlled cranking performance, while the 11-tooth drive and clockwise rotation match the listed vehicle applications. If you are replacing a worn starter on a 2003-2006 Jeep TJ or 2003-2006 Jeep Wrangler, 17874N provides the core electrical and mechanical specifications needed for direct application matching.

MPA Electrical 17874N is built around Mitsubishi manufacturing specifications and is listed as a New line product. That makes it a relevant choice when you need a starter identified by exact voltage, rotation, tooth count, and output rating rather than a generic universal unit.

Common Issues This Starter Can Address

  • Engine cranking slowly or inconsistently
  • No-crank condition with a charged battery
  • Starter motor clicking without engine engagement
  • Intermittent starting on Jeep TJ and Wrangler models
  • Wear-related starter drive or internal electrical failure

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the vehicle year, engine configuration, and starter specifications before installation. Verify 12-volt system compatibility, clockwise rotation, and 11-tooth drive alignment against the removed unit. For best results, inspect battery condition, cable connections, grounds, and the ring gear before installing the new starter on a Jeep TJ or Jeep Wrangler.

Quality Assurance

MPA Electrical 17874N is a specification-based replacement starter built to match the listed application details for 2003-2006 Jeep TJ and 2003-2006 Jeep Wrangler models. This part cross-references Mitsubishi starter applications for the same vehicle fitment.
