There should be a purple one that goes to the small S terminal. The yellow or resistance wire goes to the small R terminal. There should be a black one with a large lug that goes to ground and the + battery cable that goes to the large terminal on the selonoid. There should also be a smaller red wire with a large lug that goes to the same large terminal that the battery cable goes to on the selonoid. Hope this helps.
