Green wire with black tracer?

[adam83]

Continuing my general inspection/maintenance/repairs of my 83 gs1100e

I've noticed a green wire with a black tracer that comes out of the wiring harness around the ignition coils. It's coming from the front of the bike, in the main harness that goes up into the headlight bucket.

Someone has cut it and spliced on a red wire with spade terminal that's just hanging and has no obvious place to connect. I've searched my service manual, and the wiring diagrams here (closest I found was an 82 gs1100e, no 83,) and there is no green wire with black tracer that shows in this area.

Anyone know what it's for? Is there a link to an 83 wiring diagram I'm not seeing? It's also possible the wire shows on the 82 diagram and I missed it..

I see Light Green/Black, for the turn signals, but can't see any regular Green/Black wires in the diagrams.

Looks like a Horn Plug on the end of the wire.

The wire doesn't appear to be light green, and my horn works fine. My next step is to check for voltage in the wire while working my turn signal switch. If that doesn't show anything I'll take my switch apart and see if the wire starts there

The first thing you should check for is voltage, and working the switches to see which activates it. I have a Fox and Hound (by Triplett) which is great for find out where mystery wires go. Saved my butt in my motor home.
