I purchased skr pro kit. I printed the box . The wiring seems to be relitively strate forward the gray flat wires and the one black flat with 5 wires I have connected but I see nowhere do I see where where to put the other black flat wire with 6wires the instructions show a rainbow color wire but don’t reference it anywhere.
Do you have any pictures? I think you’re talking about the TFT wires and the extra black flat wire goes in the same connector as the other, but would need a picture to tell for sure.

Welcome @starbud13! Congrats on getting to wiring stage.
Agree with @J2_cnc, some pics of where you’re at would be helpful.
LowRider build…
For what it’s worth, shared walkthrough of my build/wiring experience here… https://zoomtube.com/@azab2c/make/v1e-lr3?v=3_10&t=25_35_55.
The flat black 6 pin wire look like extension wires. Useful for extending the 4 pin stepper wires, and 2 pin endstop or 2 pin touch plate wires back to the Controller.
The kits used to ship with white extension wires, the docs probably still show those.
Are you building a MPCNC Primo, or Lowrider3?
Primo
The male end plugs into the stepper motor cable and endstop cable to extend the wiring to the skr stepper driver and endstop plugins.
Stepper drivers:

Endstops:

So they just threw in an extra wire to confuse me. Not hardLOL
I am using shielded 18 6 for my stepers and Endstops thanks all
