Frequently asked questions

What does the STC943 starter solenoid do?
The STC943 starter solenoid sits on the Lucas 3M100 starter motor used on the 3.5L V8 petrol engine. When you crank the ignition it engages the starter pinion with the flywheel ring gear and closes the heavy-duty contacts that feed battery current to the motor windings.
Which Land Rovers does this V8 starter solenoid fit?
This solenoid fits the 3.5L V8 petrol engine running the Lucas 3M100 starter motor, including the early Defender 90/110 and the Series 3 109-inch Stage 1. It's an aftermarket replacement for that V8 starter setup.
What are the signs a starter solenoid is failing?
A failing starter solenoid typically gives a single click with no crank, or starts the engine only intermittently. The heavy-duty contacts wear over time and stop passing full battery current to the starter motor, so the engine won't turn over reliably.
Does STC943 replace the RTC837 starter solenoid?
Yes, STC943 is listed as a cross-reference to RTC837 for the 3.5L V8 starter solenoid, so it covers the same Lucas 3M100 application. If your old unit carries the RTC837 number, this is the equivalent replacement.
