ID this wire.

ok there is a wire coming off of the main body electrical harness that goes up to the main fuse panel under the hood. this wire is on there but i dont see an ending. and there was another wire that was cut also (i dont want to assume since it looks like it carries current) that was wired into one side of the 80amp fuse box. its copper and black (picture is below) somewhat heavy but not as heavy as the battery cable wires, id say 1/3 to 1/4th the size.

wire coming out of the harness.




wire that was hooked up to the 80a fuse

i thought it plugged into the fuse block but i see nowhere for it to. and i have an extra part of a harness and found this on it, only thing that i think it would come off of. ill have to check my s5 t2 wiring harness to see what if i can use it to figure it out.


only thing i found on extra harness.



im guessing thats what you had?
