Don't connect the red wire to the positive side of the coil as this terminal is powered via a resistor wire and supplies reduced voltage to the coil.

The red wire needs a full switched 12V ignition source. The pink wire on the fuse panel is a great place to power up the 1181.

The reduced voltage is fine for the coil but the 1181 module needs a full 12V.

I have that pink wire but mine doesn't have an extra wire or plug like the one in the picture. There is nothing plugged in under that wire on mine where the more red wire is plugged in underneath the pink wire, in the picture, Could I just attach there?
