Got stranded at work today; truck drove in fine. Went to leave, tried to start it, heard a click and no turnover. All electronics work, voltage is correct, battery is a 3 month old AGM. got about 57k miles on it. Based on some reading here, seems to be the starter. It's cheap enough to just swap myself but it's been a while; any service manuals or videos? Would like to see it done on a 5th gen before going after it myself.

Tried jumping it with the same results.

Disconnect battery, remove starter. Its not hard there is a bracket that does challenge some people.

Spent 2 hours screwing with it this morning before I just had it towed to brakes plus. They took care of it in no time; it was definitely the starter.
