The starter solenoid 278003012 handles the heavy current path between battery and starter, protecting the ignition switch while delivering the amps needed to spin the engine. It is aimed at owners dealing with a no-crank condition or servicing the starting system before the season begins.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eBuilt For Performance\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOEM cross-reference 278003012 for direct replacement fitment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-current contact design rated for marine starter loads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSealed housing resists moisture, spray, and corrosion in engine bays\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCopper internal contacts for consistent voltage transfer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStandard mounting footprint matches factory location\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt to handle repeated cranking cycles on the water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eFits These Machines\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003efor Sea-Doo Challenger SE 430 1503, 2008-2011\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eOn-The-Job Use\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplacing a solenoid that clicks without cranking the engine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRestoring reliable cold starts after seasonal storage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eServicing the starting circuit during routine electrical maintenance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKeeping the starter motor protected from full battery current\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eSpecs At A Glance\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart Number(s)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e278003012\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStarter solenoid relay\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSea-Doo Challenger SE 430 1503, 2008-2011\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFunction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSwitches high current to the starter motor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch4\u003eGood To Know\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ:\u003c\/strong\u003e How do I know the solenoid is the problem and not the starter? \u003cstrong\u003eA:\u003c\/strong\u003e A single loud click with no crank often points to the solenoid, while a starter that spins slowly usually indicates the motor itself.
