Fastening the Ground Strap The braided green wire grounding strap is connected to the white connector on the battery power cable. To ensure proper cable shielding, you need to fasten the grounding strap to the vehicle's sheet metal. To fasten the ground strap 1 Drill a small hole into the metal where you intend to fasten the ground strap. 2 Use a punch to dimple and enlarge the hole until it is the same size as the screw. 3 Scrape a small circle of paint from around the hole. Make sure to expose bare metal to make a good electrical connection. 4 Use a #8 x 5/8-inch screw and flat washer to secure the green grounding strap. 5 Install your equipment. For more information, see your equipment's installation instructions. Connecting the Dock-to-Fuse Block Cable 1 Locate your vehicle fuse block. 2 In the fuse block, locate the spade lug contacts that attach directly to the battery. Note: When the vehicle ignition is off, these contacts are still powered. 3 In the dock-to-fuse block cable (P/N 226-109-103), locate the white quick connect contact wire. 4 Attach the wire to the fuse block's spade lug with 12 V positive polarity. 5 In the dock-to-fuse block cable, locate the black quick connect contact wire. 6 Attach the wire to the fuse block's spade lug with negative polarity (chassis or ground).
