WTH IS THIS!
ok i got into my 98 z after work today and i saw a wire tucked up in the center console that was falling down so i pulled it a little and the one side is cut with like 7 colored wires wraped in a black covering. it goes up towards the center of the dash but cant see exactly where it goes. you guys have any clue?

harness for traction control if you had it ... maybe.
Dunno why it would be looking like that though.

*Dons Dork hat*
Plus:
1.) The term is Cat5, Cat5e, or Cat6 cable.
2.) It would be twisted pair. This isn't.
3.) These wires don't look like 24 gauge.
