What is this plug?

2020 F250. D/S lower front frame area. Truck has snow plow prep. I thought that plug may be related to snow plow prep, however I just got done putting Western brackets and wiring in my truck and that plug or wires were not utilized. (figured a way to get my mind off July heatwave was to think of snow).

Here is photo of plug in question:

My first thought would be fog light connector do the STX come with fog lights? If yes then that's not it. That would also mean you would have 2 of those connectors, one on each side.


Edit- Ford390 beat me to it while I was typing haha.

Thanks to both of you.

I do not have fog lights. I am pretty sure I do not have this plug on the P/S unless it is in a slightly different location. But fog light plug makes sense for this. Wonder if these wires go into the cab somehow and are just unused behind the dash where a fog light switch would connect.

Yep, I have the same plug on my STX. Maybe one day I'll find a cheap take off fog light bumper and buy the proper headlight switch.

The fogs might only use/have that one connector...
