We have the right experience to handle all starter replacement projects.
Every engine contains many parts, and just about any of these parts could be the reason why your engine won’t start. However, if you are having difficulty starting your engine, one of the first things you should check is the starter. As the name suggests, this is what actually starts the motor. Starters play such an important role in every engine, so our team at Longview Alternator & Starter Co. focuses on them intently. We can determine if your engine requires starter replacement, and we can provide this service and more for you.
Although all engines use starters, our team focuses specifically on the starters of trucks, tractors, ATVs, and industrial vehicles, not on ordinary cars. We understand how important these machines are for agricultural and similar operations, and we want to help you keep your equipment in good working order. You can count on us to find the right parts to replace your damaged starters, and to take care of the starter replacement process for you. By the time we are finished, your vehicle will work properly once more.
We are proud to serve the Henderson, Texas area, and we want to help you take the best care of your vehicle. If you have had difficulty in getting your engine started, we encourage you to give us a call to find out whether you need a starter replacement. If so, our team will take care of the process for you and get your vehicle back up and running as soon as possible.

Hidden
What are some signs that my starter is starting to fail?
If your vehicle sometimes fails to start, that could be a sign of a faulty or worn-out starter. We also encourage people to listen for unusual clicking or grinding noises, to see if other electrical components (such as the radio and dashboard lights) work after turning the key, and to make note of any smoky or burning odors.
Should I replace or repair my starter?
For minor issues, starter repairs may be feasible. However, if your starter is outdated, requires major repairs, or you’re not sure where to begin with the repair process, replacing it entirely is likely the more cost-effective option. Otherwise, you may wind up paying more for repairs instead of simply replacing the starter entirely.
How often do I need to replace my starter?
The answer to this can vary based on a wide variety of factors, including the type of equipment you use, how often you use it, and how frequently you maintain your equipment. Generally speaking, tractor starters and truck starters can last for around 150,000 miles with routine care and maintenance.
