I had a picture of how it goes but cant find it, one end plugs into your blower motor and the other comes from over by the resistor thing

My blower motor works fine, would it go to something in the fender or?

It is the noise suppressor capacitor used for the blower motor.

Since the blower motor is a 'brush' type they create noise that the radio would pick up. Newer models use brushless motors and the cap is not used. That earlier type makes noise that ECM's don't care for.

If you feel you must play with it, clean the ground area where it mounts, apply some copper anti-seize to the cleaned area and re-mount it to the firewall.

Good move. If it works, don't fix it.
