Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the vehicle’s starter type, tooth count, rotation, and mounting details against the existing unit before installation. The fitment list includes both Nippondenso-type applications and specific 1.2KW, 9-tooth, clockwise-rotation configurations, so matching the original starter specification is important for proper operation.

Verify battery condition, cable integrity, and charging system output during diagnosis to avoid replacing the starter for a separate electrical fault. For Hyundai Sonata, Hyundai Tiburon, Hyundai XG350, Kia Optima, and Kia Sportage applications, compare the original starter label and mounting points to the listed fitment notes.

Quality Assurance

SKP supplies this starter as a replacement electrical component for the listed Hyundai and Kia applications. The SK17764 is built to match the specified design and rotation requirements for the confirmed fitment range.
