Hello
I had seen many writing about doghead style relay mod. But I didn’t know the reason. But 3 days ago i got the reason. The reason is preventing from destroying the starter. Omg. Yes my new 28mt starter was FUBAR after a day from installing it.
My 27MT starter solenoid is not much- more consuming many wattages than 28MT starter solenoid needs. So contacts points of the relay were welded by heat then starter was not stopped I didn’t know during driving. When i stopped a car i found the fired-up.
conclusion: if you install new starter doghead style relay starter is must to go. Otherwise your starter may be burned up.
question :is it enough for burned starter to be repaired by replacing new solenoid? ( bcz when i connected my burned starter the motor can revolve)
