TR6 74 TR6 Renegade Dash Wire

Hi Group.
Was almost finished my dash wiring and have ended up with one hot (12V) switched wire with a female end with no place to go. Its directly behind the speedo and works off the second fuse. It’s brown/green ( or possibly an old red/green). I cannot find it on the schematic. Everything works fine without it being plugged anywhere; but, there would certainly not be a hot wire without an insulated cap just hanging loose. I have the hot lead for the radio, so that’s not it. I tried, plugging it into the stabilizer as a second hot wire, but it affected the windshield wiper, heated up, and blew a fuse. Any thoughts appreciated.
Thanks,
Will
 
Do your headlights work? Can you switch from high beam to low beam?
 
Thx Steve. Fan is working fine at both speeds. Guess I'll have another cup and dig back in.
 
Found it! There’s a brown/green going to post 4 ( far right if viewed from the back of the switch) of the wiper switch. Took out the switch, and sure enough, the post was empty.
On to finishing the dash.
Thx,
Will
