Help with electric plug in dash

I took the cover off of the gauge panel in my '95 F150 (getting ready to install some auxiliary switches) and found this plug next to the headlight switch and was just wondering what it's for?

Thanks for your help.

That's for the fuel tank selector.

Actually that one is the jumper for the tank switch when you have one tank and no switch. Unplug it and it won't run!

Thanks guys, I assumed it was something in relation to the duel fuel tank setup but wasn't sure...

ncranchero, we're not far apart, I'm only about 5 minutes from Hwy. 18 heading west on Hwy. 10

Oh yes, I know Casar, and Knobby. My daughter just graduated from Gardner-Webb Univ. Bought ford parts from Carbo @ H&H and also from Huffmans Garage. I need to get back up there.

Good deal, congrats on your daughter's graduation. I haven't spotted Knobby yet but I'm keeping my eyes peeled... I bought several things for my 71 Ford from Carbo's years ago.
