In a Mercedes SRS, the starter is located beneath the intake manifold near the top of the engine. The starter is a small motor that turns the main engine to start the car, aiding in combustion. If the starter malfunctions, the car won't start and may emit a clicking noise when you turn the key. Replacing the starter may cost between $300 to $500 on average, with parts around $300 and labor at $200. If you decide to remove it yourself, it should take about an hour and a half, and you will need a wrench for the job.
If your Mercedes SRS is not starting, it could be due to a dead battery, a failing alternator, or a blown starter motor. You can get a free diagnosis at a nearby automotive parts store.
