Not likely. More likely that the starter is drawing too much current. Besides the work getting it out, it should be less than $50 to get it rebuilt. Have the solenoid checked at the same time.

Seems to me the start relay just enables the starter solinoid. I would think the problem is between the ign.switch block and the relay no?
