This is under the drivers side floor mat on my 84 adventurewagen. I don't know what it does or where to plug it.

With that end, it clearly isn't VW.

Follow it, see where it goes.

If connector has been replaced, possibly ground to base of steering column?

See what else is down there... <shrug>

A VW installed ground wire typically would be brown. (Looks almost black on my screen)

If everything works that you want to have working, then just tape it off well and leave it.

I think I like your suggestion.

I forgot to point out the channel that is part of the metal floor where the wire lives. Because there is only one channel I figured it would be obvious to someone what it is for. The wire is brownish.

your rear speakers are working good?

I never thought about that I don't have any sound system set up.
