MPED- A relay is basically a switch that is operated by another switch.
Say you have a circuit wih a lot of power running through it, like say your starter. It would be very unsafe to have that power running through wires directly into the ignition. Tha chance for shock and otehr malfunction would be too great.
So a relay is used, the ignition switch has a wire that is connected to a relay that completes the circuit to engage the starter.
Get me, or did I just confuse you?
I have no advice for your situation besides agreeing with a starter wiring culprit.
