Relay Grounds
The Relay Ground wires are Black striped wires. The Relay Ground wires are:
 Yellow/ Black- “RELAY 1 GROUND”
 Blue/ Black - “RELAY 2 GROUND”
 Green/ Black - “RELAY 3 GROUND”
 White/ Black - “RELAY 4 GROUND”
The Relay ground wires provide a chassis ground source to the electromagnetic
coil inside the relay which is used to switch, or activate, the relay. The Relay ground
wire will connect to a good clean chassis ground or the negative side of the battery. Like
the Relay 12 Volt wire, the connection of this ground depends on the activation method
of the relay. To determine the activation method that best suits your needs, see pages
14 & 15.
Relay Outputs
The Relay Output wires are Red striped wires. The Relay Output wires are:
 Yellow/ Red- “RELAY 1 OUTPUT”
 Blue/ Red - “RELAY 2 OUTPUT”
 Green/ Red - “RELAY 3 OUTPUT”
 White/ Red - “RELAY 4 OUTPUT”
The Relay Output wires
carry power from the relay to the
component needing power.
Examples of components
needing to be wired through a
relay are: electric cooling fan(s),
electric fuel pump, electric water
pump, off-road/driving/fog lights.
Anything that requires an
amperage draw of 25 amps or
more is generally better off
wired through relays. This
prevents high amperage draws through the main fuse block.
