More input!

Most black wires are usually grounds, but if you do post a pic, probably could help out.

Where exactly on the ignition system are you referring?
Black is ground.

Camera is dead so give me ten with the pic, but the wire has like a metal connector on the end like it was plugged in to something. Im talking about where the key goes. Oh yeah i was being careless and thought that this was the only wire in the ignition...

see it is like a plug.
The other end goes into the ignition.(key part)

Just go in and look for the female end. It should be around somewhere, it could be taped up in a harness somewhere.............. That is a ground wire by the way.
