My jack arrived today and it only has a black ground wire coming out of it. Where is the wire that attaches to the positive terminal of the battery?

It has been awhile since I installed it and do not remember the specifics. However, I do remember finding the instructions extremely easy and having no problem getting it to work as advertised. Sorry I could not be more help.

The black wire connects to the battery or positive connection... The ground is obtained through the bolted connection of the jack base to the trailer tongue. Be sure that there is a good metal-to-metal connection when bolting the jack in place.

Hi Doyle,If I recall, there is only 1 wire which hooks to the positive side of the battery. I believe the unit is already grounded when installed on the trailer. I store my trailer offsite and I cannot get there without a major inconvenience. I'd follow the instructions and if you're missing a wire, return the item and get a replacement. I hope this helps!

Hi Doyle,The black wire is your positive connection, the unit will be grounded when you install it on the tongue. Just make sure you clean and remove any rust when you remove the old jack for a good ground for your new jack.

it has a red and black slotted connector that slides onto the battery prongs. if your battery does not have the prongs you can get adapter slotted connector that will crimp to a short piece of wire and attach an alligator clip. this will connect to the battery post (ie mower or cycle batt)

The jack is wired direct to your battery on the trailer tongue....Jack comes with ample length wire.

Also be sure to make sure you have your radio code if required, if you choose to disconnect the negative battery terminal while installing. Good luck

If you bought this from us (electric motor warehouse) we should have sent you a capacitor with the motor. The two brown wires for to the new capacitor. The black & white wires go to the power leads. You would hook up the black wire to where the old black wire went. The white wire on the new motor would go to the "C" terminal on the old 3-prong capacitor (probably where the yellow wire went from old motor) this is the other power source.

I have this problem, too. At the moment I have a binder clip on the cord right below the jack that is doing the trick so it seems like its a problem with the wire. I wonder if a replacement cord would fix the problem?

I found a fuse under the hood that was controlled by the ignition switch and I tapped off of it with a fuse stab all my wiring i left under the hood because i could not find a fuse in the cab that was controlled by the switch. the yellow wire is wired directly to the battery, also make sure you leave the black ground wire un hooked under the hood

You cut off the two connectors already on the wire, and crimp ring terminals on the ends. Make sure the rings are big enough for the battery terminal you buy. Get a terminal for the battery that has a post and wing nut.

Generally on the mower you have caps that cover the connection at the end of the cable that attaches to the battery. Pop the cap cover off the terminal and attach the red to the positive and the black to the negative terminals. Be sure not to get them mixed up.

This item is VERY easy to install. It takes about 2 min. Remove the negative cable from your battery by loosening the small nut and bolt that hold the clamp tight in the battery terminal. Remount that positive terminal on the brass nipple of the battery disconnect. Now mount the open end of the disconnect to your positive battery terminal. Done! To temp disconnect just loosen the green clamp.

You have to loosen the nut on the battery terminal and strip the wire and secure it under the nut. I went and bought an open terminal instead of using bare wire.

You need to connect that black wire to the bottom of the original pcb board, battery ground. You need both pcb board.

There should be a negative and positive terminal where you can put a wire in and clamp it as seen in the picture near the bottom corner the two terminals. You'll need to take a 9V battery and get one of those connectors where it connects to both of the battery's leads and turns them into a red and black wire. Put those wires into the terminals respectively and it should be powered

Remove battery bay cover on the underside of the unit, gently pry out battery pack from bay and then gently pull on battery pack until you see a small white connector in line with the wires. The connector may get caught in the side port so look for this if you don't see the connector. Gently pull on either side of the connector until the connector separates. Plug the new battery pack in the connector half attached to the unit, carefully feed the extra wire through the side port, seat the battery pack in the bay and re-install the cover.

If I remember, you can use either the positive or negative terminal. I connected to the positive side. You will need to purchase an additional cable Autozone). I used a 9" positive cable. I connected the positive cable from the battery to one side of the switch and the additional cable from the other side of the switch to the positive connection point. Did not have to touch the negative. Hardest part was creating a hole in the battery case (RV trailer) to locate the switch. It only took a few minutes to install and has worked without problems for a year. Hope this helps.

Hello Brian, The instruction should be on the back of the black box. Please remove the plastics on the battery terminal before using the battery. Thank you
