Help identifying a connector

Hello, can anyone assist me to identify this yellow connector. I can't find it in any of the diagrams. Before breaking down my truck I took over 100 pic's. My phone was hi jacked despite having virus controls in place. Went to provider for assistance and was told that they needed to wipe the phone. Assured me that everything would be backed up. Not so....

!976 F250 supercab/trailer special.

Thanks in advance

It does not look factory to me. Maybe trailer brakes?

I have the same truck and found your connection, but it's under my dash where yours looks to be in the engine compartment. I have a male connection under my dash feeding what you show. I traced my connection to my engine compartment (see attached). On my truck I'm "fairly" sure the wiring is for my 7-way trailer connector. If you trace back I'm thinking you will have connections in the back of your truck for a trailer light switch.
