1985 25 HP Model E25TELCOS

Hello All,

Having a problem with my electric start capability. Not sure if it needs a new starter, or other part(s) that I am not aware of.

My first question to one of you pros, is what part is shown in the attached picture? I traced the wiring from my push button starter to this piece. But, I don't think it's the starter. This being my first time here, I am going to try sending a picture of the part in question.

Any advice or help would be appreciated.
