Default Disconnected cable. Any ideas where it goes?

So I was replacing my air filter and then this cable was just laying in there and I was wondering what it goes to. It is pretty long and I am wondering what the heck it goes to.

Looks like the plug for the radiator overflow reservoir switch, lets you know with a light on dash if your coolant bottle is low.

It may be, but I'm just not seeing it.
Anyone have a picture or diagram?
I just couldn't find a place for it to plug in on the coolant reservoir. There are other wires running under it.
