Wire it with switch to +, terminals on solenoid doesn't matter, ground one and switched power to the other, fuse in switched side right after your power source.

it's pretty easy. for mine, i have a ground wire going to the unit. from the unit is another wire that goes inside my car, to my switches. then, there is a wire that goes to a fuse, then to the the power source (cigarette lighter). hopefully that helps.

SLP instructions suck. I got their line lock years ago and its OK. But it Is lacking compared to SJMs kits. I wired mine to a switch installed in my console.
