The fuse holder directly goes to the red wire at the motor on one end. The other end I traced to go inside the car under the steering wheel and into a wrapped bundle that I would rather not mess with. I think it goes to a +12 V source past the ignition switch. So, in answer to your question, yes it will run.

Any other thoughts? Anyone?
