From the factory service manual ...

The positive side goes to the PCM (not sure that's 100% accurate; that's the NEGATIVE side of this equation!) and is a black wire with a yellow tracer.

The NEGATIVE side goes to the Auto Shut Down relay, and is from there connected to the battery after a bit more.

MY truck also has a capacitor / condensor on the ASD side, to serve as noise suppresion.

Past that, I dunno; where do the wires go?
