Default Dyna Fxd 2001 Battery cables

Hi,

Greetings from cold Finland

I have a question about this cable as shown on the link below.
Where does it belong?I know that it isnt the battery positive or negative cable or starter negative cable.Its only cable that i dont know where i take it off when i tear my bike open.Now after i painted my frame im putting it back together and i have almost done about the wiring but i really have no clue about this cable...I should have take some pictures before i started but i didnt.

Here is the link:http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images...121207473.jpg/

Thanks already.

PS:Sorry my english but i hope you understand

Looks like the positive battery cable on top of the starter assembly. Remove the battery and battery box and you'll see the connection? Can a little paint be scraped off to ID the color of the cable?

It goes to the top of your starter I'm pretty sure.

But if it is from top of my starter it really confuses me...

Is the cable routing like this:Battery positive to top of the starter/From circuit breaker to top of the starter/and of course both battery and starter to ground/And one connector from starter relay to starter.

There is already a black well protected wire what comes from circuit breaker and it isnt the voltage regulator wire that im sure.Could this cable what im wondering about be somekind of expansion?cable to black wire what comes from the circuit breaker?

Again sorry,my writing skills are bad....

That's how it is wired.

IMO it's the wire numbered 70102-69 in this starter circuit wiring diagram:
