I believe that is a resistance wire, which has a built in resistance so it won't run a full 12V.
Hope that helps. Also, in the future, if you don't know where something goes, you can always mock the wiring in place. It's all pre-cut to length, so there's only a small number of connections in the vicinity of the terminal to which it will connect.
When I was learning schematics, I would put them in photoshop, then make layers and erase the stuff I wasn't interested in, that helped me narrow down what wires went to what circuits. It's especially helpful when you look at a common schematic, and not a fancy color one like we're so blessed to have in these forums.

Thank you. My problem is I did a Ls swap and I'm trying to figure out what wires I need and don't need. That was one of the last wires I've been trying to figure out. So I'm guessing I don't need that wire correct?
