Some were mentioning using the I terminal to indicate a contractor
stuck, and thus the starter engaged, which would not indicate a
mechanical malfunction that was spinning the starter.
This is just an idea that someone with more start motor experience
than I can tell us if it is workable. What about wiring an indicator
to the feed from the contactor to the starter. Perhaps the rotating
starter would act as a generator to power the indicator. This would
not work for starters that had another built in contactor, but perhaps
there are starters this would work for ?
Although relatively rare, having the starter and flywheel teeth jam
and break in flight might make for a "stormy night" story
