Hey gang. I was going through the car yesterday taking stock on the issues and found this wire tucked into the spring mount hole. It comes from the coolant and looks like a ground but I don't know where to attach it. I'm sure this is a basic deal but I don't have a lot of resources on hand. Any help would be appreciated; photo would be really appreciated.

The 2nd photo is where the wire has a connection and connects just under the coolant tank. The first photo is the bare wire I found tucked into the spring mount. The wire is clamped to a hose at about half of its length. Since it's a bare wire the best I can do appears to be wrap it around what appears to be projection coming out from the t-housing (i'll take a photo tomorrow). This may explain why my d$%ned A/C would work for all of 5 minutes at a time this summer until suddenly blowing air from the 10th ring of Hades, usually after a downshift. The dealer wanted to throw parts at it, starting with a compressor; evap was mentioned, that would have been expensive....
