No, but there's a ground stud on the chassis right next to the relay board. It should already have a bundle of brown wires going to it from the main harness.

Pin #10 on the body wiring harness (the 14-pin plug) gets ground. It only connects to the defroster relay and the FI power supply relay, though. Nothing else on the relay board seems to be hooked to a full-time ground.

The engine should be at ground. So should the chassis. What ya tryin' to ground?

#4 should be connected to the starter circuit, basically hooking into the yellow wire that tells the starter when to crank.
