Expert Reply:
The 2 larger terminals on either side of the solenoid # PK5230701 are 12 volt power in and out. Power in can come from the battery or alternator. The two smaller terminals are for ground and an ignition source (something that only has 12 volt power then the ignition is turned to the on position).
Pollak states to mount the solenoid in an enclosed area but DO NOT install in the engine compartment.
