Wasnt this posted up the other day?
I assume it will be a terminal for the REM lead that opens the relay (if there is one) in the capacitor allowing it to be charged when the headunit is switched on. Otherwise with a resistor connected across the terminals (the display) it will continously drain your battery.
Anymore questions?

I think it's most likely to be a REM wire...

I wouldnt like to say thats what it is for definite but the REM lead comes off the back of your headunit and usually goes to the 3rd terminal on your amp at the supply terminals and basically turns your amp on when you turn you headunit on. All you would need to do if that is what the terminal was is run a lenght of wire from your REM terminal on your amp to the terminal in question on your capacitor.
REM = remote (remote switching)
