Mouser wiring

I got my mouser GPR, how do you wire it? There are no markings at all on the relay. Two big wires, two little wires, I suppose I can just follow the pattern of the orginal one but would like to be sure.

It doesn't matter how you wire it as long as you get the little ones on the little ones and the big ones on the big ones. It will work the same way.

When i hooked mine up I just guessed. I dnt think it matters although with it mounted i found the wires could only fit one way becase one wire is shorter than the other if i remember correctly.

just hold it there like it was the old one, and transfer the wires, then tilt it 90 into place and put in the hold down screws. =)

Here's a basic Picture of a Relay...Our smaller gauge wires are the coil voltage and the larger are for the GP's...
...Don't think my Rancor or other GPR's have the quenching Diodes to kill any back voltage EMF.....but couldn't hurt.....
