Re: (ET) contactor question



Well, I called NAPA and not surprisingly they didn't have a clue. I can go in and maybe look at their book, but do you know if these will be studs as opposed to push on terminals? Any idea of a ballpark price I'll be looking at?

Thanks.

Thon, the voltage may work but not right, it will not slam the relay in to make good contact, the contacts can ack across an then they weld together, not good. Best to find a 24v relay, NAPA has the starter relays in 12/24/36/48v so they should have one you need or have it in a couple days, good luck

Thanks for all the replies.  Sounds like the contactor is a DPDT which
*should* open the top two contacts with the mower on, but doesn't.

I also now realize that a 36v relay probably wouldn't work in this 24v
situation because the cut in V would be too high?

Thanks again.
