Post brown wire off of relay under battery?

The brown wire off of terminal 85 on the big black relay under the battery comes out of the harness with the oilpressure wire (green/orange). Where does this wire go?
This is a 75 1.8 l jet motor bone stock as far as I know.

Solid brown usually means ground, I think. At least on the 1.8.

Hope this helps.

Brown means ground on almost all German cars that have original, unmolested wiring.

The L-jet EFI wiring diagram at http://www.pelicanparts.com/914/parts/Electrical/914_electric_74_AFC-B.jpg doesn't show a brown wire coming off of the dual relay.
But the white wire coming off of terminal 85 on the dual relay does go to ground.
