Mystery wire
While re-routing my existing wiring, I discovered a fairly heavy black wire, exiting in the middle of the firewall, and I believe it was routed around the drivers side. It has the original clothe covering and a split flat mounting ring. Does anyone know what this is connected to. It is raining and dark out there, just wanted to hook it back before restart tomorrow,

I would think you are going to have to trace it and see where it goes. Maybe for a camper special. What year truck. Most wires in the trucks go through plugs in fire wall.
My truck is younger than me.

Re: Mystery wire
The mystery wire was from the old alternator to the amp gauge. The amp bypass had already been done. Safety says to throw a voltmeter in and be happy.
