yes, it lets the computer know that the car is trying to start - it makes starts a lot easier.

if the start signal wire that goes to the ECU is not connected, then the car will only start if you crank it long (maybe 5-10 seconds) or if you open the throttle with the gas pedal.

i had mine disconnected for years, its a nice security feature knowing that i am one of the few people that can start my car since i know its quirks.

ps: i dont remember ANY of the factory plugs, connectors or wire colors since i completely re-wired my entire car from scratch. the only way i recall color-codes or harnesses is through my spreadsheet as i documented it all in there.
