Default Help to identify mystery cable

Hello all,

My first post here, but I've been lurking for a while hoovering up as much info as possible, since buying my Honda in June this year. Just did the 100k service and I came across a cable loose in the engine bay. Neither the plastic part or terminals were attached and it looked as if a mechanic had tucked it away to be fitted later and forgot about it.... I have scoured the engine for a suitable connector but no ideas. The AC does not appear to be working and I wonder if this part of the problem! I have posted images of the cables here: https://www.icloud.com/photostream/#A25oqs3qmRxrE
It looks quite heavy duty, the fuse is 10a.

Beer token to the first person to ID it for me!

That is not not an OEM piece.

looks like an aftermarket add-on, can't imagine it being related to the A/C unless someone did a hack-job on your wiring system. Maybe the car had an aftermarket alarm system in the past ? , 10 amp isn't that big of a circuit, pretty common .

Thanks Gents. I'll look at the AC next. It does have an aftermarket alarm so I think you're dead right.
