Does anyone know where this wire is supposed to be connected to? It's connected to negative terminal of the house battery

It needs to be connected to either battery's negative terminal (they should be cross connected). I bought a negative bus bar so I only have one connection to each neg terminal and all the other negative cables are connected to the bus bar.

Thx Julian for the quick reply. Just to be clear, the two batteries need to be connected to one another via this wire?

@Khalid there should be a thicker wire connecting the two batteries, similar to the larger black wire in your photo(looks like the one at the top is looping to the rear battery) this wire just needs to go one of the negative posts.

That wire looks an awful lot like the common for the DVSR.

It is a pretty thin wire that could be the DVSR? How can I confirm that? (Sorry for the stupid question)

To avoid belaboring the old topic, I didn't mention that my GPS based cruise control isn't working well (hesitation and err message).
