Paul,
Yes it does matter.
If you hook it up wrong the meter will record a discharge when it is charging
and visa-versa.
But I cant remember which wire goes where and it is too cramp to take a look.
My advice is to hook it up the way you suggest and then turn on the ignition
switch.
If you hook it up correctly the needle will move to the - a bit.
