Welcome to the site, hope to hear more about your car.

I think that wire is your horn wire, that, when grounded will sound the horn. If your mast wiring is all conected correctly (and you have a horn wired in) try touching that wire to the center nut and see if it sounds the horn.

If this is the case, the wire is attached to the backside of the horn button which should have a rubber ring around it to keep it from grounding... until you push in on the button creating a ground, and sounding the horn. At least this is how my Colorado Customs aluminum steering wheel/horn-button works.
Good luck,

Welcome 5chev5,
The others are correct as far as I know. The wire from the spring loaded plunger connects to the bottom of the horn cap and the plunger is retained within the aftermarket mounting hub/collar. That's how the LeCarra wheels work. Good luck.
