Default Help wiring Ignition Switch GM Performance Controller Kit

I have a pink 18ga wire that is marked ign. Where do I attach this wire?

I have the GM Performance LS376/525 Engine Controller Kit. I don't quite understand the instructions which indicate: Attach a 12 volt ignition feed from the vehicle to the pink ignition wire in the harness (this is required to enable the proper power-up of sequence of the ECM). This can be routed into the passenger compartment with the accelerator pedal connector and diagnostic link connector. ???

I just got through wiring my Camaro with this kit. I think that just attaches to a "switched" 12V power source. I will check later this morning and verify.

My ignition switch has a crank and a run terminals. That’s where the confusion comes in.

Your ecu pink ign wire will be connected so it had power with the key on and while cranking. U may have to jump it across both terminals to work correctly. If you have an original hei wire some where, hook the new harness pink to it. It works perfect on older swap vehicles.
