THere are 3 leads. One for ground (can be direct), one to the coil (-)
terminal (Also can be direct) and the third is a hot lead which needs to
be run to a 12 v. switched source. This is typically tapped off the
input terminal of the Voltage stabilizer (green wire). Don't wire it
directly to the battery or it will be hot all the time!

The round (bullet) one goes to the coil, the spade one is the power
terminal.
