Do all 72 Charger 400s have starter relay? Mine Don't - 11/04/11 12:20 PM
We are still having sporadic starting issues. But the biggest problem is that there is no starter relay. It shows up in the wiring diagrams, but appears optional for 60A alternator cars. That doesn't make sense

My 72 Charger is a 400CID M code. It does have a starter relay.

It has to have a starter relay if it is starting, unless someone rewired the car because the neutral safety switch also connects to the relay.
Follow the positive cable , where does it lead to ?

The starter relay was there to protect those wires under the dash - to keep from running the high amperage necessary for the starter solenoid through the bulkhead, switch, wiring, etc.

If it was a race/stock car and they ran a wire from the starter batt stud in to a momentary contact switch and out to the starter small solenoid stud it'd work but I dont think that's the case here. I had harness probs and I finally just bought a good used complete underdash harness from a good guy (Steve Remington) on FABO. I finally realized the time to sort it was a waste and you're in a worse spot with burnt/hacked stuff. Good luck w it. PS What is LMAO ? Only acronym I never used on here EDIT & that in/out would not be thru the bulkhead but 2 seperate firewall holes/wires
