That is how the GP relay works.

The small pink wire is 12v hot when the key is on. The GP controller card makes the ground connection when needed via the light blue wire. The manual push button is doing the same thing.

There is a great video that explains the GP system in the CUCV stickies.

Also the TM 9-2320-289-20 tech manual has a step by step procedure to test the GP system.
