For wiring diagram, go to "Filebase" under "KZ Information"
Scroll down and select YEAR.
Scroll down and select MODEL. (A similar model often has similar wiring)
Many models have a wiring diagram available for download.
Good Luck!

There should be a lug on end of negative cable.
A bolt through the lug screws into the engine
Would assure integrity of this ground connection.
