Under Dash Wiring
I’ve been trying to track down some loose ends with the wiring under/behind my dash. Seems as though the previous owner hacked things up pretty good.
Does anyone know what the 3 connectors pictured are for? And if they should be connected to anything?

The wide black flat one with 4 wires, two red/blue and two black/red is where the column mounted NSS plugs in.
The wide yellow one with two wires, one red, sand a center unused hole is a switched power feed.
The two wire polarized black one with two yellow wires, I'm not sure that it's even Ford.
What year truck?

X2 the yellow 3 hole is 12V keyed power and is used for OEM cruise control box.
Correct on the 4 flat wire one being the NSS.
The 2 round things with 3 wire L plugs are turning signal flasher and hazard lights flasher.
The 2 wire (1 male 1 female) is....ok heck what is that one again..thinking on it.

Thanks for the help. I’ll try to see if I can find out where the 2 wire connector heads. Quite a mess under there.
I’m working on figuring out what’s going on with my tail lights, sounds like none of these would affect that.

Does any one have a picture of unadulterated wiring (perhaps as seen when peeking under the dash). Mines a bit of a mess and would like a view of the wiring (from floor POV) so I can clean it up. Currently working but resembles a bird nest.
