What is purple wire by it self on plug, blue wire, but share plug with black wire? I put this column in from 84 cause it had tilt. Any idea what those are for? Everything else plugged right in.

Should be the key-in ignition chime wire for the ignition lock cylinder.

Well I did plug in a single wire from coloumn to dash area. I pulled this column from an 84 with tilt and cruise on the wheel. I do not have cruise on my 83 so I don't know if its for that or the chime.
