Hi all, I have always wondered if there should be something connected to this wire coming off of the negative battery connector. I assume that the wire coming off of the positive one is the charge wire coming from the alternator. I have looked at my manuals and none show a wire attached to anything from the negative post.
I ask this because this is not the first wire I have found capped off in this car.

those are usually for accesories and are part of newer style battery connectors. I dont know what year your car is but the side mount batteries are usually a mid to late 80's oem style connector if I remeber correctly. Yours are probably replacements so it isnt factory to a C3.
Short answer. its not used, dont worry about it. You can use it for an amp if you add a bigger stereo

GM switched to the side post battery around August/September 69.
