3VZE - Need help identifying connector

A while ago I noticed this stray connector behind my battery. I looked everywhere for a place where it should go but couldn't find anything.

This is the connector:

It goes through here

And through side next to the battery

a.d.d is on the driver side. Is your washer fluid pump working?

Thats ether the AC pump connector or the Antilock brake connector (Look straight down from the powerstreering pully and you will see a unit mounted to the frame with PS and brake lines going to it.

It's not the antilock brake connector so where's the AC pump.

The AC fan and condenser units are in front of the rad. I just removed mine the other day and got rid of the wiring harness. It might be power for the AC fan. Have a peek under the passenger fender, beside the vacuum tank. You might be able to see where it goes.

Any issues with how the truck runs?

Yes actually the idles all screwed up. It almost stalled today.

It probably isn't the AC fan cause it starts up when I first start up the truck.

I looked behind my fender and it goes towards the back of my truck. It might have to do with A.D.D. but I looked at all of the components and they have connectors already.

either the AC or egr valve but it looks like you have the egr valve plugged in. I don't think it is long enough or it is it but I think there is also another plug like that that plugs into the 4wd actuator on the front diff.
