Could be a 'starter' relay. That kind is intended for non-continuous duty. But hard to guess trying to feel the screen... Richard If I recall correctly and it's been about 15 years since I built the RV-6... The Master Relay actuates by grounding a lead. The Start Relay actuates by applying 12 DC positive to the relay. The Master is intended for continuous operation while the Start is only for intermittent operation. I don't recall the Master Relay getting hot but, then, I didn't ever attempt to touch it after the engine was operating... John Ammeter |
