3.4 Wiring Instruction
1. The standard power supply ranges from 9V to
36VDC. Please use the power wires supplied as part of
this loom. Red line means positive side while black line
means negative side.
2. ACC line (orange) connects to the vehicle's ACC
switch, detecting ignition on and o.
3. Device's oil and electricity control line (yellow)
connects to relay's 86. (thin yellow line of relay socket)
Make sure that all wiring from Power sources are
through a fusible link.
Fuel cuto relay wiring instructions
If there is an electric fuel pump in the vehicle. Locate
the Positive wire leading to the pump. The Fuel pumps
power supply can be found at the main fues box. Once
you have located the fuse. you can remove it to check
if you have found the correct power source. when the
fuse is removed the engine should stop shortly after
(this is what the relay does). Cut the positive line going
from the fuse box to the pump and wire it via the relay
as shown in the diagram 3.3 page 7. Alternatively you
can cut the ignition wiring. Again you can nd the
correct power wire by removing the fuse and testing if
the car is disabled. This kind of installation is best left
to advanced Installers or Auto electricians.
