Starter Relay

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.
