The Starter Relay on the Dodge Ram 1500 sends battery voltage to the starter solenoid when the key is in the starter position. This allows the starter motor to turn the engine. The Starter Relay will be activated by the ignition switch or the Powertrain Control Module. Housed in the starter control circuit of the operator, the Starter Relay switches from the "off" to the "on" position when powered. When in the on position, circuit remains closed by the Starter Relay so current continues to flow until key is released. When the Starter Relay is stuck in the on position, the starter gets engaged with the flywheel that could exert force on transmission and other starting elements. It will not crank if it is stuck in the off position. As the device merely opens or closes an electrical circuit, the application for Dodge Ram 1500 does not have any specific variations or other mechanisms defined. It is necessary that your Dodge Ram 1500 Starter Relay provides reliable switching for every Dodge Ram 1500 to get a flawless engine start.
