It controls a high current circuit, via a low current circuit, thus it triggers a circuit that can deliver enough power to drive the starter. If the relay fails the start will not get the power it needs to operate.
What Does A Starter Relay Do?
There are different kinds of starter relays:
One type is sort of a remote starter solenoid. This is not often used these days.
Another type is simply a relay that allows less power to be put thru the ignition switch.
Still another type can be used to prevent the engine from starting for either security or safety reasons.
