Hello. Learning the challenge of starter replacement on a '97 Q45 . . .Two vexing problems:1) wire harness bracket right behind the starter allows no room for starter removal; access to bracket attach bolt(s?) inaccessable. Suggestions?2) electrical connector for solenoid very hard to access, not sure where to squeeze the connector plastic to disengage . . . help!

I'm hoping these are the last problems keeping from removing the old starter.Thanks,Billy

Other have done it before. I hope I don't have to do it. Below is the thread about starter replacement as well as a link to the FSM (Factory Service manual, 98Q which is similar to 97Q)).
