So I rebuilt my fuel pump today just as general maintenance and while removing it noticed the bracket that holds the ignition coils and wiring was loose. I removed it to see if there was a way to tighten it up and behind cd module #2 there is an orange wire that doesn't go to anything. Is this supposed to be hooked to something? If I am reading the diagram correctly from the Clymer manual it looks like it should go to the trigger but I don't see anywhere to hook it. Help please. Thanks you.

You have a 3 cylinder engine with two CD boxes. each box serves two cylinders thus there is an extra coil wire. Normal.
