We remove the ring gear of the planetary gearbox VAZ 2112 from the drive shaft.

By external inspection we check the condition of the collector and the armature windings. Charring of the windings is not permitted.

If the collector is slightly burned, we clean its plates with a fine abrasive cloth.

If severely burnt and worn, the armature should be replaced.

Seizure and enveloping of the bearing material on the journals of the armature shaft are eliminated with the finest sandpaper, followed by polishing.

With an ohmmeter, we check the armature windings for a short circuit to the case. The ends of the windings should be well soldered to the lamellas. Blackening of windings and separation of varnish insulation from them is not allowed.

When the brushes are worn out, we change the brush holder assembly.

The assembly of the VAZ 2111 starter is performed in the reverse order.

Before installing the brush holder on the armature collector, remove the springs of all four brushes in order for the brushes to slide into the guides.

To do this, bending back the four clips of the spring holder ...

… Take out the spring.

After installing the brush holder on the armature collector, install the springs and bend the spring holders.

Install the back cover and attach it to the brush holder.

When installing the armature in the stator, we hold the armature from being attracted by the permanent magnets of the stator with a long screwdriver and lower the stator of the VAZ 2110 onto the back cover.

We install the stop ring of the drive gear on the stop ring using sliding pliers.

Apply lubricant SHRUS-4 to the gears of the planetary reducer.

27. Remove the internal gear and drive shaft support from the shaft.

28. Remove the O-ring from the support. Replace a strongly deformed or lost elasticity ring.

29. Remove the insert from the support.

30. Remove the two screws and remove the brush holder from the collector side cover.

31. Prying the brush clips with a screwdriver.

32.. remove them and the hold-down springs. Replace deformed or damaged retainers and heavily compressed or bent springs.

33. Remove the brushes from the brush holder guides.

34. Remove the bare brushes.

35. Remove the cardboard insulation pad. Replace a torn or over-crimped gasket.

36. Remove the connecting bar with insulated brushes.

37. Examine the anchor. If the collector 1 is dirty or has risks, traces of burning, etc., sand the collector with fine glass cloth. With significant roughness of the collector or mica protrusion between its plates (lamellas), grind the collector on a lathe and then grind it with fine glass sandpaper. The runout of the core relative to the shaft journals should not exceed 0.08 mm. If not, replace the anchor. If you find a yellow plaque from the bearing on the shaft 2 of the armature, remove it with a fine sandpaper, as this can lead to the gear sticking on the shaft. If there are scuff marks, nicks on the surfaces of the journals and splines of the shaft, replace the armature. Check the reliability of soldering the leads of the winding 3 of the armature to the collector plates. Inspect the winding at the ends of the armature; the diameter of the winding should be less than the iron package of the armature. Otherwise, replace the anchor.

38. Check the condition of the armature winding using a test lamp supplied with an alternating current of 220 V. Supply voltage to the collector plate and the armature core. The lamp should not be lit. If the lamp is on, then there is a short circuit of the armature winding or collector plate to ground. In this case, replace the anchor.

39. While holding the overrunning clutch, turn the starter gear in both directions: clockwise the gear should rotate freely, but should not rotate counterclockwise. If not, replace the drive.

40.Install the starter drive on the drive shaft, it should move freely, without jamming along the shaft splines.

41. If the drive parts are badly worn or damaged, replace the drive. If nicks are found on the lead-in part of the gear teeth, grind them with a fine-grained small-diameter emery wheel.

42. Visually inspect the shaft bushings installed in the drive end starter cover, manifold end cover, armature shaft support and drive shaft support. If the bushings are worn out or have scuffs, pits, etc., replace covers or supports with defective bushings. Also replace covers and supports with cracks.

43. Inspect the stator, if there are traces of rubbing of the armature on it, replace the rear cover and intermediate support.

44. Replace brushes that are worn to less than 3.5 mm between the work surface and the terminal.

45. Check the ease of movement of the brushes in the guides of the brush holder. They should move without jamming, and the brush holder itself should not have chips or cracks.

46. Inspect the drive shaft. Screw splines and journals must be free from scoring and heavy wear. Remove the traces of copper transfer from the bushings on the journals with fine glass cloth, as they can subsequently cause the shaft to jam. The carrier and its three gear axles should not have any backlash in the connections.

47. Check with an ohmmeter whether the contact bolts of the traction relay are closed by the contact plate. To check, assemble the circuit shown in the photo and slide the armature inside the relay until it stops. If the bolts do not close, replace or repair the relay.

48. To repair the relay, unscrew the two screws 1 and unsolder the terminals 2 of the relay windings, remove the cover 3, clean the bolt heads and the contact plate with an emery cloth. If the bolt heads are badly burnt, turn the bolts 180 °. Reassemble the relay in reverse order

49. Assemble the starter in reverse order. Before assembly, lubricate the drive gear teeth with engine oil, the drive shaft helical splines, the internal gear teeth, the planetary gears and the rotor shaft splines with grease (CIATIM-201, 202, 203 or Litol-24).

50. The brush holder must be installed in the starter separately from the cover on the collector side, since the brushes are pushed out of the guide springs and it is impossible to keep them in their original position without a special device. For preliminary assembly and installation of the brush holder, use a thin-walled mounting sleeve 1 with a diameter equal to or slightly larger than the collector diameter (about 30 mm).

51. Install the assembled brush holder into the starter housing until it stops, remove the mounting sleeve and install the cover from the manifold side.

This article will detail the instructions for removing the starter from the VAZ-2112 car, the starter device and, indeed, the entire ignition system as a whole, will be described and visually shown.

The video below describes the replacement of the starter on the VAZ-2110 (on the 16-valve VAZ-2112 it changes in the same way):

We will need the new starter itself, the keys "13" and "15", you can also use the heads and ratchets for convenience.

First of all, remove the negative terminal on the battery (this is necessary for safety, in order to avoid a short circuit).

Unscrew the starter mounts

The starter is installed in the reverse order, and for simplicity, here is a small and clear diagram for connecting to the starter relay:

Connection diagram of the starter to the car relay

Let's introduce a little theory about the ignition system and directly about the starter.

The ignition system is necessary to start the engine, the starter itself is created to create a powerful current (by passing, so to speak, through the starter winding). This is done so that this energy turns the flywheel half a turn.

The main components of the starter:

You can see in more detail in the picture.

Front cover with plain bearing.
Bendix (inclusion drive).
Planetary reductor.
Rotor with manifold.
Housing with stator.
Solenoid relay.
Brush assembly.
The back cover with a sliding bearing. You can see more details in the picture.

Most of these causes can be diagnosed by trying to start the engine by closing the contacts on the starter.

There are many reasons for the malfunction of the ignition system and the starter is not always to blame for everything, so before changing the part, ask yourself that this is exactly the case. Check the relay, and the presence of voltage at the terminals of the starter. More details in the material: why does the starter not turn?

As a rule, a starter on a car of any brand performs one of the most important functions. This is a real electric motor, without which the car engine will not fully start.
The word starter is English, which translated into Russian means start - start. How does the starter work?
Immediately after the current enters the device, it starts to work and feeds the torque further to the motor. The principle of operation is simple, only it often happens that the starter fails. We will talk about this in this article.
Let's try to disassemble its circuit and fix it on our own.

As you know, a new car can work without breakdowns for about five years. Then any "spare part" can fail, including the starter.
Its malfunction is determined quite simply. It is not even necessary to take the car to a service center to understand this.
The car will not start, or the starter motor shuts down spontaneously. Tapping or abnormal sounds are often heard.
Many young and inexperienced motorists do not pay attention to these nuances and continue to drive. And this directly affects the starter and if it could still be saved, then after that it can become practically unusable.
Experienced chauffeurs do not allow this. They carefully monitor their car and if such symptoms are detected, they immediately take action.

Repair of the VAZ 2110 starter is carried out immediately after a problem is detected. You need to arm yourself with patience, the necessary tools and first learn about its scheme.

The VAZ 2110 car starter is a small four-band electric motor. It, as mentioned above, provides primary rotation of the crankshaft.
On average, three kW of energy is enough to start a gasoline engine on a VAZ 2110. Repair of the starter is sometimes necessary when the device is not able to ensure the operation of the engine at the same time.
The starter itself is a DC motor that is powered directly from the battery. The starter design has 4 brushes, thanks to which the electric motor increases its power while receiving power.

Other main parts and elements of the starter include:

drive shaft;
a gear with an overrunning clutch inner ring;
drive shaft support with insert;
relay armature;
winding;
brush holder;
permanent magnet;
anchor core and much more.

As a rule, starters are of two types: with a gearbox and without it. Masters advise using the first option (on the VAZ 2110 it is exactly this). Such a device will require less current for normal operation and will provide torsion of the crankshaft with a weak battery.
But long-term use of this type of starter leads to its rapid breakdown. The rotating gear fails.
As for the starter without a gear, it directly sends the forward motion to the gears. Devices of this type have some advantages over geared starters.
They are simple in design and easy to repair.

In order to start repairing the starter, you must remove it.
Let's look at its connection diagram below:

starter connection diagram

Vaz 2110, the repair of the starter of which is carried out by hand, it is advisable to lift it to an overpass or pit. You can also put the car on a jack to make it easier to work.
According to the diagram, we see that the starter is powered by battery 1.In addition, the diagram shows generator 2, switch 4 and the starter itself 3.
So, we proceed to dismantling, but do not forget to remove the engine mudguard:

disconnect the negative wire from the battery;
disconnect the control wire from the starter traction relay;
with the key on "13" we unscrew the nut of the wire "plus" on the relay:
remove it;
with a key on "15" (it is rare and you can use the head), unscrew the 2 nuts fixing the starter with the clutch housing;

removing the starter;
with the head on "10" we unscrew the nut of the lower output of the traction relay;
we release the output of the wire tip;
with the head on "8" we unscrew the two bolts on the traction relay;
remove it.

Please note that the traction relay is connected to the front starter cover in a special way: there is a gasket seal between them. It is necessary to remove it and then remove the spring and the traction relay armature.
Go ahead:

with a key "10", two tie rods are unscrewed;
the anchor with pins and the stator are removed;
the armature shaft of the central gear is removed;
use a Phillips screwdriver to unscrew the two screws;
remove the back cover;
remove the brush holder;
we take out the armature from the stator;
turn off the adjusting washer from the armature axis;
remove the armature shaft support (this is done with a screwdriver or a thin metal rod).

removal of the anchor shaft support

This does not end with the dismantling of a VAZ 2110 car. The starter, the repair of which is directly related to its complete dismantling and disassembly of parts, should be carefully inspected during the disassembly process.

we take out two tie rods with a small screwdriver (in principle, they do not need to be removed, then it will be more convenient to remove the gearbox and drive);
we take out the three gears of the gearbox (the starter often fails precisely because these gears have damaged teeth or needle-type bearings - if this is the case, then the parts are replaced and the starter is checked for normal operation).

we take out the gearbox with the drive by pressing on the gear of the starter drive;

remove the support with a seal from the lever;

we separate the seal from the support (we carefully inspect the support for damage or wear on the plastic surface - if it is deformed or the rubber gasket has hardened, it should be replaced);

knock down the stop ring from the retaining ring (we work with a hammer and a suitable mandrel);

remove the retaining and restraining ring (we act carefully so that they do not fall off and get lost).

Below in the photo you can see how this should be done: Image - DIY VAZ 2112 starter repair

removal of the retaining ring and stop ring

We continue to disassemble with our own hands:

remove the drive assembly;
unscrew the lever locking ring;
remove the lever with a leash and a washer;
using a screwdriver, unscrew the spring of the lever;
remove the lever from the eyeliner;
we separate them into halves.

removal of the lever and separation of the halves

We continue to work as required by the instruction:

we remove the locking ring of the gear with internal gearing;
remove the drive shaft support;
remove the ring from the support (you need to carefully inspect it for damage, deformation and hardening - if there are any, it must be replaced).

remove the liner from the support;
unscrew two screws;
remove the brush holder;
we pry the clamps of the brushes with a screwdriver;
we disassemble brushes, springs (we check everything carefully for damage and deformation, strong compression or curvature);
we check the insulating pad of the brushes (if it is torn, we replace it).

Next, we carefully examine the anchor and the collector.
Several operations need to be performed here:

grind the anchor itself with a fine sandpaper (if roughness is noticeable or mica protrudes strongly, then you can grind it on a lathe);
if the anchor has pits and potholes, you need to replace the anchor (the price for it is decent, by the way);
check the reliability of the soldering of the terminals of the armature winding.

This completes the starter repair and reassembles it in reverse order.

Starter repair usually occurs on old cars, since this unit is quite reliable and serves for many years without breakdowns, but no one is immune from low-quality parts and assembly. The most common malfunction is the burning of the contacts on the retractor; there may also be a malfunction in the overrunning drive clutch or wear of the contact brushes. Disassembling the starter is not difficult and requires a small set of standard tools.
The first thing to do is remove the starter motor from the vehicle.

Next, we will repair the traction relay. The repair can consist in cleaning the contacts or completely replacing it, but first you need to remove it.

After removing the retractor, check whether the bolts are closed by the contact plate. To do this, push the anchor inward until it stops and measure the resistance with an ohmmeter on the contact bolts. If it is absent, then we change the relay or repair it.

If you had a breakdown of the traction relay, then the disassembly ends here, but if everything is more serious, then we proceed to the next stage. To replace the brushes, anchor, bendix, as well as parts of the starter gearbox, you will need to completely disassemble.

The gears that are inside wear out over time, metal chips appear and the lubrication property deteriorates. The gearbox must be well lubricated to reduce wear on the parts.

The brush holder is easiest to replace as an assembly.

When installing the brush holder, bend the clamps and take out the springs.

In order to check the anchor for possible defects, we remove it from the case.

We check the condition of the winding using a 220 V lamp. When we apply voltage to the collector plate and the armature core, the lamp should not light. If it is on, then the anchor must be replaced.

The device and principle of operation of the VAZ 2110, 2112, 21111 gearbox On cars of the tenth VAZ family, a five-speed manual gearbox is installed, which is combined with the main gear and differential. The gearbox housing of the tenth VAZ family consists of: a clutch housing, a rear crankcase cover 26 and a gearbox housing 30. During assembly, a sealant-gasket is applied to these parts.

This can happen due to the weakening of its fastening (from friction against the car body), as well as in the event of a malfunction of the plug, which Read more ..

Welcome!
A starter is a very necessary thing in a car, thanks to it, the engine at the car starts up, but recently starters are starting to fake and make poor quality, and therefore many car owners, when installing a new starter, go back to the service after a very short period of time and change it to a new one , although you can not change it at all, but simply repair it yourself thoroughly and at the same time put grease in the gears, which is so little put at the factory where new starters for cars are made.

Note!
To repair the starter, you will need to take from the tools: Keys, namely wrenches, end, caps, in addition, expanding pliers will also require a screwdriver (It all depends on what exactly you will change in the car, if only one retractor relay, for example, then in In this case, apart from wrenches, you will not need anything else)!

Summary:

When should the starter be repaired?
If your car stops starting or does not start well, then this suggests that the starter may have become unusable, but in addition to it, the ignition lock can also cause problems and the car will not start or even the same wires, so it is unambiguous to say what the starter is broke down is not so easy, but still the most common reasons are when, when turning the key, something clicks and the car does not start, or when the starter turns but does it very weakly and the engine cannot start in this regard (In this case, the battery may be discharged), well, and the last thing is when extraneous sounds are heard when turning the key (scraping of metal and the like), if you hear such sounds, then we generally do not recommend using the car in the near future, otherwise, in the future, change the crown at the flywheel will have to, removing the flywheel itself from the car for this.

Note!
At the beginning, the starter is removed from the car and then checked for operability, you can find all this information in the article entitled: "Replacing the starter with a VAZ", but in addition, check out the video clip below, which tells in more detail about how it will be possible to check the removed starter for operability!

Disassembly:
1) First, unscrew the nut that is indicated by the blue arrow and remove the wire behind it, which is indicated by the green arrow, thus after the operation done, the retractor relay can already be removed from the car and no wires will interfere with this (But at the expense of removing the relay, a little later everything we will explain, since there is still a couple of bolts to unscrew, but if you just need to change it, then immediately skip all the points and read carefully the point under number 3 in which everything is described), now unscrew the two nuts (indicated by red arrows) of the coupling the studs that hold the stator and then disconnect it from the front cover. Image - DIY VAZ 2112 starter repair

2) Now remove the three planetary gears of the gearbox from the starter (All of them are indicated by arrows), but only you can have three or four of them, if you still find four gears, first pry the most central screwdriver with a screwdriver and then remove it , then the remaining three and when they are removed, check their condition, the gears should not have chips, scuffs, traces of corrosion and other damage, otherwise they are replaced with new ones.

Note!
After removing all the gears, there will be one more single and large, called a ring gear, it should also not have chips and other defects, it can be removed either separately for this you just need to pry it with a screwdriver (see large photo), or together with the drive shaft, the drive lever and the lever support for this, it already needs to be pryed with the same screwdriver, but not by the gear itself, but by the support (see small photo), if you suddenly completely removed the entire drive, then first of all inspect it and make sure that the teeth on the drive are not painted in any other color and that there are no nicks and deformations on them, minor defects are eliminated with a diamond file or an abrasive bar, if necessary, replace the entire drive or the entire starter with a new one!

3) With regard to removing the retractor relay, it has two bolts that secure it, they are still indicated by red arrows, so if you want to remove it, unscrew these bolts and then pulling gently on the relay (Indicated by a blue arrow), remove it from the starter and by the way about checking it, connect an ohmmeter to the terminals of the traction relay and then sink the armature inward until it stops, while the ohmmeter readings should be close to zero, if you have everything, then the relay is working properly and does not require replacement.

4) Then take a wrench and a hammer and with the help of them, knock down the travel stop ring (see.photo 1, do not forget to put another piece of wood under the drive or a piece of dense rubber so that it does not deform), as soon as the ring is knocked down, use a screwdriver to remove the other retaining ring from the groove and then remove it and behind it the stop ring also remove the travel from the shaft (see photo 2), then remove the drive from the shaft and when it is removed, pry the retaining ring and remove it with expanding pliers (see photo 3) and thus you can disassemble the drive and replace the worn parts in it , well, and finally, the rest of the shaft with the shaft can also be disassembled if necessary, for this remove exactly the same retaining ring (see photo 4) and remove the thrust washer from the shaft, as well as the shaft support, and so on.

5) Next, using a flat screwdriver, pry and thereby remove the front cover (It is indicated by a green arrow) from the stator, and by the way, if on the shaft, when removing the stator, the same central gear remains on the shaft, which is still indicated by a red arrow, then you will remove it, otherwise you will not be able to remove the cover, it will rest against this gear (Do not forget to check the gear, if there are traces of deformation on it, then replace it with a new one).

6) And finally, unscrew the two screws securing the stator cover (see photo 1) and then remove it, as soon as the cover is removed, using a screwdriver, pry the starter brush assembly (see photo 2), then remove the one behind it the front shaft support (see photo 3) and a thrust washer, as shown in the fourth photo, and at the end, grasping the shaft (it is also indicated by an arrow for clarity), overcoming the force of the magnets, remove the armature from the stator and after removing it, inspect its collector and winding , traces of charring and various kinds of deformations, should not be found on the armature windings, otherwise the armature changes to a new one, but if everything is in order with the winding, then proceed to cleaning the armature collector, namely, if it is heavily contaminated, then using sandpaper (Zero) clean it, then rinse the starter anchor with water in which the detergent will be diluted and at the very end, when the work has already been done, clean the anchor with a clean cloth dry from water and dirt and blow it off with compressed air (Compressed air can be supplied by such parts as compressor, tire pump, etc.).

Note!
What else we wanted to warn you about, when the brush unit is removed, check its brushes, the height of which should be at least 3.5 mm, and the brushes should not have any damage or other deformations, except for the brushes of the gearbox part (These include all gears) and drive with white spirit, rinse all this, and then you can proceed to reassemble the starter and install it on the car!

Additional video clip:
You can clearly see the procedure for repairing a starter in the video below:

Note!
The video above does not show the repair of the bendix, it is also a drive, but only a partial disassembly of the starter is shown, for more details on how to remove and disassemble this drive, see another video, which is also located below:The article describes in great detail with a photo accompaniment the process of repairing a starter on a VAZ 2110 car.In a new car, breakdowns and malfunctions in the starter are rare. But if the car has served for more than 5 years, then problems may arise. The car owner himself can determine the malfunction of the starter - the car does not start, uncharacteristic sounds when starting the engine, the starter turns off spontaneously.But many motorists do not pay attention to such signals from the car. And they bring the situation to the point that it is no longer possible to "save" the starter. But an experienced motorist who monitors his car, immediately, by the sound of a working car, will determine the malfunction of this part. So how do you fix a starter? Its repair takes place in several dozen stages described below.1. First, you need to remove the starter from the car. Now we proceed to disassemble the part.3. Disconnect the tire from the traction relay contact bolt.4.Carefully remove the two bolts that hold the traction relay.5. The traction relay must be removed from the starter.6. Set aside the starter itself and remove the armature from the traction relay. To do this, lift it up and the anchor loop is released from the lever.7. Now we return to the starter itself. Remove the tie rod nuts.8. The next step is to remove the cover from the drive end with the gearbox and the same assembly part.9. The cover must also be removed from the side of the collector with brushes and brush holders.10. Then remove the gear from the anchor shaft.11. Pull the anchor itself out of the starter.12. The anchor shaft has a washer on the drive side (pay special attention to this).13. Use a screwdriver or other thin object to remove the anchor shaft support.14. Then use a small screwdriver to remove the two tie rods from the starter cover. In general, it is not necessary to remove them, if you are in a hurry, you can leave them, however, it is more convenient to remove the drive and gearbox without these pins.
