Ignition switch wires

Can someone please direct me as to where in the Factory 356B/C workshop manual it shows where each wire goes into the back of the ignition switch? I have a red wire with a black stripe hanging down unconnected. A quick check shows that everything is working. I can only come up with one place that uses this color wire and that is the clock, however, the clock does not go through the switch and is working fine. I have two empty female receptacles in the #54 grouping, three empty female receptacles in the #30 grouping and one empty receptacle labeled Pa.

I checked the color coded diagram on this site and the only red wire with a black tracer on it goes from the # 2 fuse (verified) to something not labeled. Does not go to ignition switch. I cannot check to see if this unlabeled thing is working. Oh well I'm going to put the switch back in and wait to discover what's not working.

Nothing to do with the ignition switch. My loose wire was for the accessary plug. It is now in place and the switch reinstalled and all is good. I followed the two wires out from the #2 fuse on the black and white diagram in the workshop manual and discovered that the unlabeled thing on the colored diagram is the accessory plug and a quick look revealed that there was no wire connected. Problem solved.
