Key Features

• New starter assembly for charging and starting system service
• 12V, 5.5kW specification for heavy-duty starting demand

• PLGR 38 configuration for application-specific fitment
• Fits multiple IC Corporation and Ford medium-duty platforms

Detailed Description

Part number 200-38112 is built for vehicles that require a starter with the listed electrical and mechanical specifications. Fitment includes 2004-2007 Ford F-650 and Ford F-750, along with IC Corporation applications such as CE School Bus, HC Integrated Commercial, BE School Bus, RE School Bus, and several chassis and commercial bus platforms. This starter is also listed for the Workhorse Custom Chassis W22, making it a broad-fit solution across commercial-duty starting systems.

For buyers searching for a starter for Ford F-650, Ford F-750, or IC Corporation bus applications, the key is matching the 12V, 5.5kW, 11-tooth, clockwise PLGR 38 specification to the original unit. The 200-38112 part number should be verified against the existing starter configuration before installation.

What This Starter Helps Address

• Slow or failed engine cranking
• No-start conditions caused by starter wear
• Intermittent starting performance
• Electrical starting system replacement needs
• Starter mismatch from incorrect gear or rotation specifications

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the original starter’s voltage, kilowatt rating, gear tooth count, rotation, and mounting configuration before ordering. This unit is listed for N/A position applications, so fitment should be matched by vehicle application and starter specification rather than side or axle location. Verify the part number 200-38112 against the removed component to ensure correct application.

Quality Assurance

MPA Electrical lists this starter as new, and the application data identifies the exact electrical and mechanical configuration for proper replacement selection.
