So this morning when I went to start my car, I found out that my starter solenoid died...so now im driving around in my brothers RX-7

Correction: bumper to bumper is 60k...gettin it fixed under warranty.

 

The relay or the solenoid? The relay is remote mounted and the solenoid will be on the starter, thus you getting a whole new starter. No one rebuilds them piece by piece anymore.

Yay warranty!

Relay - controlling the path of electrical circuits using electronic signals

Solenoid - Using an electronic field to create mechanical action.

 

ya, i realize the difference, and also both are usually used for the current path. however, from the manual, it looks like u 'could' get just the solenoid. And its def the solenoid, I can hear the motor turn, but not the click of the solenoid to engage the gear to the flywheel.

whatever, happy surprise that the warranty is 60k
