Putting the engine back in the 1968 Ghia and I cannot remember where one of the wires goes. Its a black wire with a fuse connector in it. Where does it go and what is it for?

It goes to the 15 terminal (+) on the coil and provides power to the reverse lights.

Any idea what size fuse goes in it? Apparently it’s missing.
