Default Firewall electrical connector

Working on hardwiring the connector. I've got a tan 16ga wire on the engine side that is not shown in the wiring diagram. It is in the same half of the connector as the high beams, but it is not the wire for the high beams. Any idea what it feeds? I should have diagramed it before I started pulling the wires out of the connector.....live and learn.

Tan could also be for the alternator.
