[QUOTE="keep_hope_alive, post: 8463363, member: 576029"] red is +12V ignition and yellow is +12V constant. both need to be connected to the positive battery terminal. black is ground and is connected to the negative battery terminal. i like using insulated alligator clips for making temporary connections for testing. get yourself an inline fuse holder for testing like this (or use alligator clips to run through a fuse). all other wires should be insulted so they don't short to each other or metal. best to just cut them so no bare wire is visible, leave as much length as possible.
