I have a vivtar 1900 flash and when you open it up on the inside I have a green wire that is not connected to anything and I was wondering if anyone might have a vivitar 1900 flash that they have opened up and looked inside to see if they might be able to tell me where this wire connects?

Grab a bright light and a magnifying glass and snoop around inside. You should be able to see the remains of the wire where it broke off, likely at a solder pad.

Apparently a guy named Bob Beck used a Vivitar 1900 to make a "magnetic pulser", another DIY medical zapper device. If you can find details of his work, it might identify the green wire. Maybe here.

Take a clear well focused photograph of the electronics and post it.
Thankfully, you don't need a working flash to do this.
