Need a couple parts Curious on cost THX

[kjselv2931]

I have a 1994 Q45 I need a starter ans not sure what it is called but the wire that goes from the starter to the battery. My battery caused corrosion and it got in the wire and went all the way to the starter.

Please e-mail me [email protected]

Thankskrystal

Didn't the technican clean the battery every 90 days when you got your oil changed?

Never heard/seen one do this, as starter replacement on early Q is rare.

Junkyard might be best as this cable is expensive same with starter used might be better than an economy parts store reman..............if you rehabilitate the unit yourself clean and check/replace brushes and index commutator.................that's what a reman is primarily a junkyard cleanup.

I have seen the cable go on some toyota's. Two Sienna's to be specific.I quess it's rare but can happen if you don't service the car.I actually had a cable custom made to fit the Sienna.I almost forgot, Welcome to Nico!

If the corrosion/rotting is at either end of the cable and replacing it is out of the question because of the cost, you should be able to buy crimps and more cable at a good auto parts store (Tognotti's) and splice in a new section of cable. I bet the price of new insulated cable, a crimping tool and a couple of crimps and end connections would be cheaper than buying a new cable from the stealership.
