[DML] Re: Rare Engine Compartment "Relay"?

["DMC Joe" <dmcjoe@xxxx>]

Stian,

The item you are describing is the "compensation resistor bypass relay".
This is one of several electrical circuits that never made it to print. The
relay simply controls the operation of the compensation resistor network.
Although the relay looks weathered they rarely go bad. We have a schematic
wiring diagram and legend chart that will be published to our website as
soon as time permits.
