Q 3. Does this starter motor replace any Yanmar original-equipment part numbers?

A. Yes. Yanmar OE numbers cross-referenced to this part include 114361-77011, 114362-77010, 114362-77011, 114399-77010, 11436177011 and 11436277010 — 6 Yanmar references in total. Search our catalogue by any of these numbers to verify the match for your engine.

Q 5. What are the key specifications of the WAI 18203N starter motor?

A. The 18203N operates at 12V with a rated output of 0.8kW. It uses a PMDD (Permanent Magnet Direct Drive) design built to Hitachi specification, with counter-clockwise (CCW) rotation and an 8-tooth pinion. It is supplied brand new.

Q 6. What does PMDD mean on a starter motor?

A. PMDD stands for Permanent Magnet Direct Drive. Rather than using wound field coils, the motor uses permanent magnets to generate the electromagnetic field. This reduces the number of internal wear components and maintains consistent cranking output across the motor's service life — a common design in the Hitachi starter motor family.

Q 7. Can I ask questions about this product before ordering?

A. Yes — ask Simon, or WhatsApp our team on 07754 288583 with any questions about specifications, suitability, or compatibility.

Q 8. Is this part covered by your Fit Guarantee?

A. Yes. Every vehicle and OE cross-reference shown for this part is checked against manufacturer data and backed by our Fit Guarantee. If it is not right, our Fit Guarantee or hassle-free returns have you covered.
