Honda - Acura RSX Type-S Starter Motor Assembly | 02–06 6-Speed | 06312-PRB-505RM

Restore dependable starting performance with this Genuine Honda/Acura Remanufactured Starter Motor Assembly for the 2002–2006 Acura RSX Type-S.

Part number 06312-PRB-505RM is a direct OEM replacement starter designed for RSX Type-S models equipped with the 6-speed manual transmission. OEM catalog information lists it for all five Type-S model years from 2002 through 2006. 

The starter motor uses battery power to crank the engine when the ignition is activated. A worn starter can result in intermittent starting, slow cranking, clicking or a complete no-crank condition.

What It Does

The starter motor is responsible for turning the engine over during startup. When the ignition is activated, the starter solenoid engages the starter with the flywheel and the electric motor rotates the engine until combustion begins.

A properly functioning starter provides:

• Fast and consistent engine cranking
• Reliable cold and hot starts
• Proper engagement with the flywheel
• Correct OEM electrical connections
• Factory-style fitment and mounting

Common Symptoms of a Failing Starter

Replacement may be necessary if you’re experiencing:

• Clicking when attempting to start
• Engine does not crank
• Slow or weak cranking
• Intermittent starting problems
• Starter spinning without properly engaging
• Grinding during startup
• Vehicle starts after several attempts

Battery condition, grounds, cables, relays and electrical connections should also be checked before condemning the starter.
