Ripping hair out, wire ID please!! :)

I'm in the middle of doing the single turbo wiring harness simplification and I'm having a hell of a time trying to ID this wire on the blue connector.
It is Black & Green, heavier gauge than most. I opened up the harness last night and got rid of the emissions then this one jumped out at me because it didn't seem to be connected to anything. I was about to rip it out and decided to investigate.
Can anyone ID this wire? I can't even find this connector on the wiring diagram.

Thanks!!!
Justin

I should also mention that it is an AUTO harness and the wire in question is the one with the zip tie on it. I figured out that the connector is X-05 on the diagram, which is the connector "between front & instrument panel".... still digging.

Okay, I have finally figured it out. Looks like it is the (+) wire that controls the magnetic clutch on the air pump which I eliminated 3 years ago. Here's how I found it for those in the future who may also be losing hair.

Page X-1 in the factory wiring schematic shows the connector.
Once you view the connector, compare to this thread: https://www.rx7club.com/3rd-generati...ersion-222574/
See this thread as well. https://www.rx7club.com/3rd-generati...-wires-966001/

Glad you sorted it out! Hopefully others will find this and realize you just have to dig a bit sometimes and find your answer!
