Hi-- just fired up my land cruiser after getting the starter rebuilt due to intermittent start issues. The guy at the shop mentioned replacing a relay before as well but that didn't fix the problem.
Anyway, the starter stays engaged, even taking the keys out of the ignition doesn't turn it off. Have to disconnect battery, THEN it shuts off.
I figured maybe the relay was stuck, there's one under the dash thats labeled 'IGNITION' on the parts diagrams, I pulled it and put the battery back on and the starter still screams so it's not that. The other relays down there seem unrelated: flashers, headlights, a/c...
Is there another relay that could be stuck on that kicks the battery power to the starter? Or anyone have any other ideas?
