OEM reference number: 5426014, cross-reference numbers: 5426014R, 5433495, 5473630, 5490308, 5491448. Direct aftermarket replacement for classic Citroën models.

• Robust cast-aluminum housing delivering good heat dissipation and anti-corrosion performance.
• Built-in electromagnetic solenoid integrated with Bendix overrunning clutch assembly.
• 9-tooth drive pinion, counter-clockwise rotation (viewed from pinion end).
• High-density copper armature, long-life carbon brushes and reinforced commutator for stable cranking performance.
• Two-hole mounting design with M8 mounting bolts for fast and accurate installation.
• Strict factory testing including no-load test, load performance test and insulation resistance test.
• Compact and lightweight structure, suitable for classic small-displacement gasoline engines.

This 12V DC electromagnetic starter consists of three core units: DC motor, solenoid actuator and overrunning Bendix clutch.

1. When the ignition switch is turned to the START position, low control current energizes the pull-in and hold coils inside the solenoid.
2. Solenoid magnetic force pushes the plunger, which drives the drive lever to push the pinion gear forward to mesh with the engine flywheel ring gear. At the same time, the heavy-duty main contacts close to supply high battery current to the DC motor.
3. The DC motor converts electrical energy into mechanical torque, spinning the flywheel to crank the internal-combustion engine.
4. Once the engine starts and runs faster than the starter output speed, the overrunning clutch slips automatically. This prevents the high-speed flywheel from driving and damaging the starter armature.
5. When the ignition START signal is released, solenoid power supply cuts off. Return spring pulls the pinion gear backward out of mesh with flywheel, and the starter stops operation completely.

This starter is widely applied to vintage Citroën passenger cars. It meets aftermarket replacement standards and can resolve common faults such as no cranking, slow cranking and abnormal starter noise. Custom branding and private-label service are available for bulk orders.
