TR6 Small pigtail wire

[pdplot]

There is a small wire about 6" long with an insulated tip attached to the positive battery cable. Any idea what this is (was) for?

I suspect your car has an aftermarket, generic, positive cable from the local parts store. Those often come with an additional wire for accessories or something on American cars.

I'm not sure the link will work... but does it look like the picture linked below?

Sorry for redundant post. I was writing when Doug answered.

Maybe a universal battery cable.

That's it. Might prove useful for running something directly off the battery or testing.
