Starter Assembly with OEM numbers 28100-E0350 / 28100E0350 (VICO model VC-ST045, SAWAFUJI cross-reference 0355-502-0019 / 0355-502-0040) is a verified direct-fit replacement for HINO J08C / J07C / J05C series diesel engines. This starter is a critical component of the engine's starting system, widely used in HINO Ranger / HINO500 series trucks and commercial vehicles powered by J08C/J08E engines.
The starter consists of three main components: a DC series-wound motor, a solenoid switch (pull-in/hold-in coils), and a one-way clutch (Bendix Drive). When the ignition switch is turned to the "START" position, the solenoid energizes, pushing the pinion clutch forward to engage the 11-tooth drive gear with the engine flywheel ring gear. Simultaneously, the motor rotates under 24V power, delivering 4.5kW of power through the one-way clutch to the drive gear, turning the flywheel to start the engine. Once the engine starts, the flywheel speed exceeds the starter speed, and the one-way clutch overruns, automatically disengaging the starter from the flywheel to protect it from high-speed back-driving damage. This starter features clockwise rotation (CW).
- Starter Spins Freely — Hearing starter motor spinning but engine not cranking (drive gear fails to engage or clutch slipping)
- Hard Starting/No Start — Multiple start attempts fail; starter makes abnormal noise but cannot turn the flywheel
- Grinding Noise During Start — Sharp metallic grinding or "clanking" sounds during starting (gear wear or clutch damage)
- Starter Runs On — Starter continues running after engine starts with whining noise (stuck solenoid)
- Weak Cranking — Starter turns slowly; engine cannot reach starting speed (internal winding short or bearing wear)
- Solenoid No Response — No reaction from starter when ignition switch is turned (open solenoid coil)
- Installation Success Rate: 98.5% direct fitment rate — confirmed across 203 repair orders (Jan 2024 – Jun 2025)
- Rated Voltage: 24V — standard heavy-duty truck electrical system voltage
- Rated Power: 4.5kW / 5.0kW (model-dependent) — provides strong cranking torque for J08C engine starts
- Drive Gear Teeth: 11 teeth (11T) — exact match for HINO J08C flywheel ring gear
- Rotation Direction: Clockwise (CW) — standard match for HINO engine rotation
- Brand: VICO (SAWAFUJI technology) — Model VC-ST045
- Mounting Bolts: 2-bolt / 3-bolt (model-dependent) — standard mounting
- Certification: TS16949 / CE — international automotive quality management certified
- Warranty: 12 months / 1 year
- 100% Factory Tested: Every starter undergoes no-load speed, load torque, and solenoid pull-in/release voltage testing
