Oh, I know, but I wanted to make sure anyway - I didn't use my DMM to test the current through that wire - I should have.
Another 40A relay with a 5A button was what I was going to try, but O'Reilly's discontinued the line that carried the one I wanted, so I went with the Heavy Duty version - a big brass button.
