Does you car have traction control? Might be your answer.

That is your cruise control, the black box on the passenger side is for traction control. If you have traction control youll have one cable going to the throttle body. If you dont have traction control youll have two cables going to the throttle body one for the go pedal and one for cruise control.

Im not an expert by all means but I would say this sounds right because I have a 98 TA and it has two cables like you are talking about. I have cruise, and I don't think I have traction controll (no button for it anyway). I always kinda wondered about it too.

What he said...^^^

The cruise module is under the driverside underhood fuse boxes. It's bolted to the subframe.
