Default Where does this wire go?

My mother in law gave her 97 C5 to my son as a graduation present. It's not what you would call 'pristine' condition and we are having to tear it down to fix a bunch of stuff. It seems the more we dig the more we find.

I found a small gauge black with white stripe cable that had come off of something under the battery. It comes out of the harness below the fuse box and seems like a ground of some type. There is a chassis ground on the frame that has a side clip that doesnt have a cable connected to it. This is the only place I can find that it would connect to. There is no other cable damage in the area (ie battery leakage damage).

Is this where it goes?

Thanks

Michael

That is G104 and I can see there is a wire pulled out of that wire terminal that you have 1 wire that comes from the negative battery terminal attached to...there should be 2 wires on that ground stud for your model year...my 2001 has 3 wires attached there !!...Oh, and WECOME TO THE FORUM !!
