The DAF CF75/CF55 24V Starting Platform

DAF CF75 and CF55 trucks use a 24V starting system with 11T starter motors. The starter numbering spans the 00012310 series (0001231013, 0001231041), the zero-prefixed Bosch numbers (0001346162, 0001735788, 0001368313), a group of 09860 and other numeric numbers (0986017980, 1287890, 860304, 861035), the LRS/Lucas numbers (LRS01896, LRS1896, 458331), and a group of other cross numbers (30125, 30125N, 2-2635-BO), all referring to the same starting-system family for the DAF truck platform.

It is critical to verify the voltage, power rating and tooth count on your old starter: this unit is rated at 24V 4.0KW with an 11T drive gear. Starters with a different voltage, power rating, tooth count or mounting pattern are not interchangeable with this unit. The 11T drive gear is a key identification point for this unit, so count the teeth on your old starter pinion carefully.

Confirm the mounting flange pattern, terminal positions and bolt spacing against your original starter before ordering. Always cross-check the OE numbers stamped on your old unit, including the 0001231013 family, before placing an order.

Technical Specifications

Compatibility and Cross Reference

According to the original product page, this starter motor fits DAF CF75 and CF55 trucks. The original page does not publish a detailed fitment table, so do not rely on the truck name alone for fitment validation; always compare the original part number, mounting holes, tooth count and connector configuration before ordering.

Multiple OEM and cross numbers appear across production batches and regional market specifications for this same starter family. If your original unit bears one of the listed cross-reference numbers, 0001231013 serves as a direct drop-in replacement.

What to Look for in a Replacement

Follow these five verification steps before placing your order to avoid wrong-part returns:

• 1. Check the voltage and power rating on your old starter: confirm it is a 24V 4.0KW unit for the DAF CF75/CF55 application. Other ratings are not interchangeable.

• 2. Check the tooth count on your old starter: confirm it is an 11T drive gear. Starters with a different tooth count are not interchangeable.

• 3. Confirm the application is a DAF CF75 or CF55 truck. Other vehicles may use different starter assemblies.

• 4. Compare the mounting holes, flange pattern and connector configuration with your original starter, and match OE numbers including the 0001231013 family.

• 5. Weight cross-check: genuine matching unit weighs approximately 8.05 kg net; significant weight difference indicates wrong assembly.

Application Scenarios

• Truck repair shops servicing DAF CF75 and CF55 trucks with failed starting systems.

• Fleet maintenance teams for DAF trucks replacing worn 24V starters.

• Auto parts retailers and distributors stocking European truck starters for the aftermarket.

• Truck owners and DIY enthusiasts replacing worn starters with a factory-spec new unit.

• Exporters supplying European heavy-duty truck starters to global markets.

FAQ

Q: Which trucks does this starter motor fit?
A: It fits DAF CF75 and CF55 trucks. Confirm your exact truck model, year and OE number before ordering, and check that your old starter is a 24V 4.0KW 11T unit.

Q: My old starter shows number 0001231041 or 0986017980, will 0001231013 work?
A: Yes. These numbers belong to the same starter family for the DAF truck platform, differing only by production revision and market specification. It serves as a direct replacement.

Q: My old starter shows 1231013 or 1346162, are they covered?
A: Yes. 1231013, 1346162 and 1735788 are the non-zero-padded forms of 0001231013, 0001346162 and 0001735788; confirm the full number stamped on your unit and match it against the zero-padded format in the reference list.

Q: Are LRS01896 and LRS1896 the same number?
A: Both LRS01896 and LRS1896 are listed in the original part-number area and are kept as separate reference numbers here, matching the Lucas numbering system in which the two forms are distinguishable.

Q: My old starter has 10 or 12 teeth, will this 11T unit fit?
A: No. The tooth count must match: this unit has an 11T drive gear, and a starter with a different tooth count is not interchangeable. Confirm the tooth count of your old starter before ordering.

Q: What is the correct charging voltage after installation?
A: A healthy 24V charging system should regulate at approximately 27-29V at the battery terminals with the engine running. If the voltage is out of range, check the alternator, regulator and wiring before further testing.

Q: What is your warranty and lead-time?
A: Goods are in stock with a 10-day dispatch lead-time. A 1-year warranty applies from installation date; warranty excludes damage caused by mis-installation, incorrect wiring, water ingress, short circuit or physical damage.

In Practice

The original product page does not publish a specific installation method or torque data for this starter. The following section therefore uses the general 24V heavy-duty starter installation standard, with reference to the common installation practice for DAF truck starters and after-sales maintenance experience from the auto repair industry; before installation, compare the specific torque values with the corresponding DAF service manual.

Disconnect the negative battery cable first to prevent short circuit and electric shock during installation. Remove the starter mounting bolts, disconnect the B+ main cable and the S control wire from the solenoid terminals, and mark them for reconnection. Take out the old starter smoothly, and inspect the flywheel ring gear for chipped or worn teeth; replace the ring gear if damaged. Clean the flywheel housing mounting surface and the starter flange, free of oil stains, rust and burrs.

Align the new starter with the flywheel housing spigot, insert the mounting bolts and hand-tighten, then tighten in a diagonal sequence in 2-3 steps with a torque wrench; for 24V heavy-duty starters, a typical reference torque for the main mounting bolts is 55-65 N.m, to be fine-tuned with reference to the corresponding DAF model manual. Connect the S control wire to the solenoid S terminal, then connect the B+ main cable to the battery positive terminal, tightening the nut securely. Ensure the starter housing is grounded through the mounting bracket, free of rust and oil stains. Secure the wire harnesses to avoid contact with hot exhaust components and moving parts.

After installation, reconnect the negative battery cable and check the wiring connections. Start the engine and check that the starter engages smoothly and the pinion returns fully after starting. Each single start-up shall not exceed 5 seconds, with an interval of at least 10-15 seconds between consecutive start-ups to avoid overheating. If the starter fails to crank, check the battery voltage (at least 24V under load), the main cable connections and the solenoid operation before further testing.
