I just put tape over the end so it can't possibly short out and then rolled it up. If you put extra gauges in your truck, you could use that wire to power the backlight in the gauges.
The ground wire goes to a ground on the controller. The other end of that wire is already connected to a chassis ground.
Your the man Larry, thanks a lot.
