What safety precautions should be taken when servicing the starter motor on a 2.3L engine on 2003 Ford Focus?

Safety steps must always be followed while servicing the starter motor on a 2.3L engine because the starter solenoid's heavy gauge battery input remains electrically hot all the time so protect the starter solenoid's boot or cap after completion of service. Start with battery ground cable removal and place the vehicle on a hoist while it rests in NEUTRAL gear. First remove the terminal cover from the starter motor solenoid before disconnecting the wiring by removing its terminal nuts. Completion of the starter motor removal process requires first disconnecting the power steering pressure line bracket nuts from the stud bolts before using bolt removal to extract the starter motor. The installation method consists of doing the removal steps in reverse order.
