Standard Ignition SS-789 Starter Solenoid

Starter Solenoid for Mitsubishi Eclipse and Galant

Standard Ignition SS-789 is a 12-volt starter solenoid built for direct replacement service on select Mitsubishi applications. It is engineered with heavy-duty copper contacts, higher-purity copper windings, and low-resistance terminal materials to help deliver strong current flow to the starter.

Fits 2000-2005 Mitsubishi Eclipse and 1999-2003 Mitsubishi Galant. This part cross-references Mitsubishi OE-style numbers such as MD619140 and Standard Ignition SS885 for the same application.

Key Features

• 12-volt starter solenoid for starting-system repair
• Male connector with round connector shape
• 3 terminals with screw and blade terminal types
• Heavy-duty copper contacts to reduce arcing and extend service life
• Pure copper windings for a stronger magnetic field
• Cadmium-plated copper discs and solid contact bolts to reduce voltage drop
• Pure copper battery terminal studs to support higher current flow in hot conditions
• Hardware included for installation

Detailed Description

Standard Ignition SS-789 is a starter solenoid for Mitsubishi Eclipse and Mitsubishi Galant starting-system repair. The internal copper contact design, polyester-insulated magnet wire, and low-resistance terminal construction are intended to help maintain full battery power delivery to the starter while limiting electrical overload. For technicians and DIY buyers searching for a Mitsubishi Eclipse starter solenoid or Mitsubishi Galant starter solenoid, SS-789 provides a direct-fit electrical replacement for the listed model years.

Common Issues It May Address

• No-crank condition when the ignition key is turned
• Intermittent starter engagement
• Clicking from the starter circuit without engine cranking
• Voltage drop in the starting circuit
• Starter operation affected by heat-related resistance

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle’s original connector style, terminal count, and 12-volt system before installation. Inspect battery cables, starter terminals, and ground connections for corrosion or looseness, since poor connections can mimic solenoid failure. Confirm fitment for 2000-2005 Mitsubishi Eclipse and 1999-2003 Mitsubishi Galant before replacing the part.

Quality Assurance

Standard Ignition manufactures this solenoid with copper-based current-carrying components and durable contact materials to support consistent electrical performance in starting-system service.
