Starter Relay
Where can I buy a new starter relay thats like the original? I am replacing my battery cables and the post on the starter relay broke off when I tried to remove the nut. Thanks.
Re: Starter Relay
NAPA, Autozone, etc.
They stayed the same on the trucks through the early 90's as I recall.

Re: Starter Relay
Thanks, I tried autozone today and they could not find it so I will try good 'ol NAPA tomorrow.
Re: Starter Relay
If they don't have one for a '64 ask for one for a '78 or a '84.
It is the same one as on my 79 B200 van.

Part Number! You the man! thanks
Re: Starter Relay
There might be two different part numbers for the auto tranny
vs. manual tranny relays. The auto tranny relay has an extra
post for the neutral safety switch.

You're probably right...
That PN is for a rig with a 727.
OLDTIMERS...........Forgot about the neutral switch post.
OH WELL!

Re: Starter Relay
If you find yourself in a bind and can't find the proper truck relay, the cars of the
same era used the same relay. The cars just had a different mounting bracket.
I had a car relay on my 71 for a couple months, because I had an extra one on the
shelf for my Plymouth.

Re: Starter Relay
Why not just go to NAPA first? Most parts, and most knowledgeable counter people (most of the time!), not to mention better parts.ZAR wrote:Thanks, I tried autozone today and they could not find it so I will try good 'ol NAPA tomorrow.
Relay for manual tranny is part# SR4

Re: Starter Relay
Out of curiosity what is the difference between SR3 and SR4?
Ampacity, # of pins, their location, grounded or ungrounded, etc?

Re: Starter Relay
The auto version has an extra pin which attaches to the neutral safety (backup light) switch,
and will not let the truck start in gear.

Re: Starter Relay
Since all mine are autos all I've used are SR3s. Does the plug in harness fit the same on the SR4 and just bypass the neutral lockout switch pin?
What I'm asking ( I GUESS) is can you use the SR3 as a "universal" relay?
At one time I thought I remembered reading {or being told} that one of the relays was 'grounded' internally to the body and one wasn't.
Just asking.

Re: Starter Relay
If you use the auto tranny relay on a truck with a manual transmission, you must run a ground wire to the extra post that the wire from the NSS would normally plug into. That's what the NSS does, it provides a ground for that particular prong on the relay, but only in Park/Neutral. When the shifter is in another gear, the ground circuit is "open" and the relay won't send power to the starter.MOPAT wrote:Since all mine are autos all I've used are SR3s.

Re: Starter Relay
SR3 and SR4 Photos showing the extra pin. (SR3 has the Extra Pin) It also looks like the pin on the SR4 is just grounded to the body, but can't say for sure. Just saying thats what it looks like.

Thats right ,Ryan. That pin is for the neutral safety switch.You can ground that pin,and the relay will function.

Re: Starter Relay
Thanks for that bit of info! I have the "auto trans" one on mine and I just grounded out that extra leg for it to work.
