have fun...

I understood that it is for the governor when used in PC etc applications. Mine is a Silenx

(with third generation fluid dynamic bearings) but expect the wiring to be pretty much standard. I believe the top: hot, the middle: ground and the bottom wire (cut short to take it out of play) the governor. I cut it flush and tucked into the shrink tubing. I tested mine to the battery posts prior to soldering, crimping and shrinking tubing. I should also say this wire is pretty small, maybe as 22 or 24 and so hard to strip. I ended up twisting the wires together, soldering them, drilling out a butt connection so the twisted would fit the full length, then crimped and tubed. Maybe overkill, but I didn't want to take a chance the nut would come off in consideration of this small a gauge wire.

p.s. just saw troutboy's OEM install. Interesting our are in the uppers fin compartment vs the lower (in our system) coils. I suspect it isn't the exact location as much as the CFM flow of air out the upper door/vent. See above link re opening the upper refer door.
