Hello everyone I am needing some help. I recently took my air intake off to replace the intake manifold upper and lower seals because of a check engine code. I also replaced the spark plugs and replaced the valve cover seals and the coils. I put it back together and went to start it up. I get power and can hear clicking but it will not start. I opened the hood again and found a wire not connected. I can not for the life of me find where it goes to. It comes out from under the battery and off the cable that connects to the positive battery lead. I have all the other plugs in and there is on connection even close to it. I will upload a pic generalizing the area. I think the green arrow points to the cable. I will check and confirm. if anyone could tell me where it goes I would be more than thankful!

The plug is for the battery isolation device that was removed from the car when the PDI was performed by the selling dealer. It plugs into a blank plastic connector behind the battery. The battery needed to be disconnected for the long journey accross the Atlantic on a freight ship and the isolation device performed this task.
