Starter Relay
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
The starter interrupt relay consists of:
- pull-in coil and contacts.
When the key cylinder is in the START position:
- the pull-in coil is activated and pulls the contacts together.
- current passes through the starter relay from the engine compartment power distribution box to the starter solenoid.
When the key cylinder is returned to the RUN position:
- the relay turns off the starter solenoid which disengages the pinion from the flywheel.
