SOLENOID (P/N 18036) - New Surplus

Part 18036 is a solenoid that functions as an electromagnetic switch for aircraft starter circuits. When energized, the solenoid coil actuates contacts to engage the starter motor, controlling high-current DC flow from the battery. It isolates cockpit wiring from the heavy starter current, protecting flight deck switches and controls.

The solenoid mounts near the starter or engine compartment and connects between the start switch and starter contactor. Installation and wiring must follow the aircraft maintenance manual and FAA AC 43.13-1B acceptable practices. Duty rating and system voltage determine proper selection.
