Can anyone tell me where this line connects toO?

Just tonight I was checking my headlight bulb on the driver side. I stumbling across a vacuum line of some sort hanging loose. I don't know what it hooks up to. Does anyone know where this should hook up too?

Sammy, No i'm not getting any codes at all. I look all around the wiper tank for a connection. I don't see any. Unless it connects to it at the bottom? I try tracing it, it just disappears into a bundle of taped up wires.

Sammy the wire is grey and then it is attached to the black rubber hose. It runs right along/above the drive side headlight.

I took some pictures of my 2004. Not sure of what the hose does or what it connects to but hopefully the pictures will help you get the hose reconnected.
