Default 87 xj stray wire.

I'm new to xjs and can't find what this wire is or where it goes to. Will upload pics if needed, it looks like it would be a ground but I'm not sure. It comes from the harness running along the fuel rail and drops down along with the coolant temp sensor and 02 sensor wires. It looks just like a cable any help is appreciated and will upload pics if needed. Thanks in advance.

That's the wiring going to the oxygen sensor. Find where it's broke.
