Matt, the # ME48FR uses the included plug-and-play harness: connect red and black leads to the battery, route the rear plug under the vehicle, and tie the small blue wire to a keyed or brake circuit for auto-stop. The system’s protected by a 20-amp fuse and typically draws around 18–20 amps while spreading.

How do you plan to route the wires back to the spreader? Along the frame with zip ties?
