Here is a thermal image before / after shot of K21 and K23 starter contactors. Please note… amp draw was fine. Thermal Image uncovered a problem with L2 at 158F and 175F. Further inspection of the contactors showed contacts inside the starter were severely burnt. Thanks to the thermal camera this problem was taken care of before a more serious issue took place (Fire, burnt up wiring, burnt up unit due to contactors welding closed… preventing shutdown of unit, etc.). A big difference in temps with new contactors!
