The 6723 starter motor (OE 6723, 96208781, 1202127) is a new, OE-spec replacement starting component built for the Daewoo Excelle. Rated at 1.4KW with a 9-tooth drive pinion, this starter delivers reliable cranking torque so your engine starts dependably every time.

This aftermarket unit matches the original starting-system requirements of the Daewoo Excelle engine family and the 6723-series starter cross-reference. It adopts a dependable solenoid switch and gear assembly for reliable engagement. The unit is stocked in-house, backed by a 1-year warranty with a 10-day dispatch lead time. Reliable cranking-torque design guarantees dependable start performance for your vehicle.

Key physical specs: net weight 2.65 kg (gross 2.75 kg), overall dimensions 24 x 12 x 16 cm, supplied in a neutral kraft inner carton.

Daewoo Excelle Starting System

The Daewoo Excelle engine relies on a correct starter match so the engine starts reliably under normal electrical load and in cold conditions. This starter uses a 9-tooth pinion engineered to mesh precisely with the engine flywheel ring gear for dependable engagement, delivering stable operation after installation.

Technical Specifications

Engine Compatibility and Cross Reference

This starter motor fits the Daewoo Excelle application. Do not rely solely on the vehicle model for fitment validation; always verify the engine model, old-starter OE number, pinion tooth count and power rating stamped on your original starter housing.

Multiple OE numbers exist across different production batches and market specifications for this same starter family. If your original starter housing carries any one of the listed part numbers, the 6723-series unit is 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 nameplate data on your old starter: confirm the rated power is 1.4KW. Different power ratings are not interchangeable.

• 2. Count the pinion teeth: this unit requires 9T. An incorrect tooth count will destroy the flywheel ring gear.

• 3. Confirm your vehicle is a Daewoo Excelle application. Other vehicles use different starter assemblies.

• 4. Match the OE / reference part numbers stamped on your original starter housing.

• 5. Weight cross-check: a genuine matching unit weighs about 2.65 kg net; a significant weight difference indicates the wrong assembly or low-grade build quality.

Application Scenarios

• Independent repair shops and auto-electric workshops servicing Daewoo Excelle vehicles across Asia, Africa, the Middle East, Europe, Latin America and North America.

• Parts counters and jobbers stocking Daewoo starting and charging electrical components.

• Daewoo fleet operators, dealerships, maintenance facilities and wholesale parts distributors.

• Used vehicle export traders supplying Daewoo Excelle vehicles to global secondary markets.

• Maintenance teams restoring vehicles to factory-standard condition.

Installation Steps and Precautions

Installation must comply with the assembly specifications for low-voltage electrical equipment and the general requirements for engine starting systems. The following are standardized installation steps, including compatibility inspection and practical operation precautions, to ensure stable operation after installation.

Pre-Installation Preparation

• Power cut protection: Turn off the engine ignition switch and disconnect the negative battery cable to avoid short circuits caused by accidental circuit contact during installation.

• Tool preparation: Prepare a torque wrench, 14-19mm socket, screwdriver, wire harness clips, conductive paste, metal cleaner and rags. Have small accessories such as gaskets of the same specification ready.

Component and Compatibility Inspection

• Confirm the new starter is the 1.4KW model and compatible with the engine of the target vehicle.

• Check that the starter housing has no cracks, the drive gear has no broken teeth or excessive wear, the gear expands and contracts flexibly when toggled manually, and the bearing rotates without jamming.

• When replacing an old starter, clean the oil stains and rust at the old installation position. If the flywheel ring gear has missing teeth, severe wear or other defects, replace the ring gear before installing the starter.

Cleaning the Installation Workstation

• The starter is usually installed at the engine flywheel housing. For some vehicles, first remove the surrounding air filter box, small pipeline brackets or wire harness shields, clear obstructing wire harnesses, and reserve sufficient operating space to prevent component interference during installation.

Securing the Main Body of the Starter

• Firmly fit the starter onto the mounting surface of the flywheel housing. Gently toggle the drive gear by hand to confirm it aligns with the flywheel ring gear without misalignment or jamming, so as to ensure smooth engagement during subsequent startup.

• Pre-tighten 2-3 matching fixing bolts diagonally, then tighten them to the standard torque of 35+/-5 Nm with a torque wrench (fine-tune with reference to the corresponding Daewoo maintenance manual). Insufficient torque leads to violent vibration during operation, while excessive torque may damage the housing or the flywheel housing threads.

Connecting the Electrical Circuits

• Main power terminal (Terminal 30): Locate the starter main power terminal and connect the thick power wire from the battery. Before connection, wipe the terminal with a cleaner to remove the oxide layer; if necessary, apply a small amount of conductive paste to reduce contact resistance. Tighten the terminal nut to 8+/-2 Nm to prevent the terminal from overheating and ablation when a large current passes through the circuit.

• Control terminal (Terminal 50): Gently insert the plug of the solenoid control terminal. Do not insert or pull it forcefully to avoid bending and damaging the pins. When arranging the wire harness, keep it away from rotating components such as the engine pulley and fan. Fix the harness with clips and tighten the bracket bolts to 5+/-1 Nm to prevent wear and leakage during operation.

Finalization and Functional Testing

• Reinstall the previously removed components such as the air filter box and pipeline brackets in sequence, and confirm all shields and clips are properly installed. Reconnect the negative battery cable, tighten the terminal nut, and check for no looseness.

• Conduct a no-load test: turn on the ignition switch, start the starter briefly, and check that it operates smoothly without abnormal noise and the drive gear expands and contracts normally. Then start the engine and verify the starter drives the flywheel smoothly without abnormal gear meshing noise.

• If startup is weak, check whether battery voltage is at the proper level for the electrical system. If there is abnormal meshing noise, readjust the installation angle of the starter or inspect the flywheel ring gear. If the starter has no response, troubleshoot whether the control terminal plug is poorly connected.

FAQ

In Practice

For technicians working on the Daewoo Excelle platform: before removing the existing starter motor, perform starting-system diagnostics. Measure battery terminal voltage under cranking load. Defective batteries, corroded cables, bad ground points or damaged flywheel ring gear can mimic starter-failure symptoms, so do not replace the starter blindly. Always disconnect the battery negative terminal before commencing removal work.

Take photos of wiring terminals and bolt positions during disassembly to avoid mis-wiring during reassembly. Inspect the flywheel ring gear for chipped or worn teeth before fitting the new starter, because a damaged ring gear will quickly destroy the new starter pinion. Tighten mounting bolts to the Daewoo official workshop-manual torque specifications.
