On all the systems I install the yellow wire is to hook to the wire that is grounded when the security sysyem is activated. Your leds will respond when security system is activated.

So that should mean that if he grounds the yellow wire the leds should come on,
but reading thru Ken's posts, that doesn't seem to be the case. In one post
he says that there appears to be no difference if the wire is touched to
positive or negative.........

Andy your conclusion is correct. It seems to make little matter what I do or don't do with it.
I took the whole shin dig to a local custom vehicle accessory place the other day and he said he believed it was a power to memory sorta thing. Kinda like the radio remembering what Jimmy Buffet song was playing when I turned off the ignition so it could be right there when I started again (maybe a poor example) but like a radio remembering the correct time and such. In this case it would remember which cycle the LEDs were in when turned off so that would start there again.
Time will tell........
