Hmm, where's this wire go?

I just got a new to me '97 2500 4x4 CTD. This is my first Dodge, so I'm trying to find my way around the truck. I have a plug hanging down from the wire bundle that goes to the horns that looks like it ought to be plugged in somewhere. It's got about 6&quot; of wire from the tie-down to the plug and hangs down to just below the bumper on the front left corner of the truck. I don't see anything obviously missing a wire - the horns are connected and working, the headlight, marker and turn signal all work on that corner... any ideas?<br>Thanks.<br>Greg

Not sure on the 97, but the factory fog light wire on the 2001, goes all the way down to the crossmember under the radiator and splits.<br>FWIW<br>wk

Re:Hmm, where's this wire go?

Could it be for the temperature sender for the overhead console? Me thinks I looked into this once but do not remember what the answer was.<br><br>Of course, if you have an overhead console and nothing plugs into the connector then I am obviously mistaken (not an unusual condition for me).
