havr a bad starter solenoid….where can I get one

Skytec has PMA starter solenoids, not Mooney original model so a slight modification to mounting may be required.

Usually when the old starters fail people just replace them with a SkyTec or B&C, both of which are much lighter and turn the prop faster than the original starter.

Otherwise you might be able to take it to an electric motor shop to get it repaired.   The original starter is essentially a tractor starter.

is it bad or just sticking?

did you tap on it, sometimes that will release it

The coil was “shunted” and will trip the 10 amp breaker for the solenoid

AI and I installed the PMA solenoid from spruce…

to reduce wire tension, we had to push slack starter wire from engine compartment into the cab.

Did you mean the relay?   Thought you meant the solenoid on the starter.

My original one was a SAZ9201A….
