DENSO 280-5306 First Time Fit Remanufactured Starter Motor

The DENSO 280-5306 First Time Fit® Remanufactured Starter Motor is engineered to deliver factory-original performance backed by DENSO's decades of OE manufacturing expertise. As the original inventor of the gear-reduction starter — a design so robust it is frequently adapted for motorsport applications — DENSO applies that same proven engineering to every remanufactured unit.

Each 280-5306 starter undergoes a rigorous multi-stage remanufacturing process designed to produce the lowest return rates in the replacement aftermarket. Components are not simply cleaned and repackaged; they are individually tested, refinished, and replaced to exacting standards before the completed unit is bench-tested to confirm factory-spec output.

Key Features:

• High-voltage tested armature and field coils — individually inspected to ensure reliable electrical performance
• Solenoid coil 100% voltage tested — verified for consistent engagement under all operating conditions
• Premium copper terminals and fasteners — replated or replaced to ensure a clean, low-resistance electrical connection
• Commutator refinished and performance-validated — polished, gauged, and tested to OE tolerances
• Housing re-tapped to OE standards — inspected for heat warping, corrosion, and surface alignment, then refinished
• Pinion gear inspected and replaced as needed — verified against engineering specifications
• All-new bearings, brushes, and seals — not reused from the core unit

Benefits:

• Maximum cranking torque under all operating conditions
• Compact, class-leading size and weight consistent with DENSO's gear-reduction design
• Reliable cold- and hot-weather starting performance
• Environmentally responsible — recycling valuable core components and precious raw materials

The DENSO First Time Fit® program is built on one promise: the correct part, proper fit, and confident installation — the first time. Remanufactured to meet or exceed all original manufacturer standards, the 280-5306 is the dependable, value-driven choice for starter motor replacement.
