Unknown connector/wires

2015 F350. Under the exhaust brake button I have a small cubby (coin holder?). When I pull it out, there is plug with wires that is plugged into the cubby to hold it there. This plug/wires have
to be for an option. What is that option?

Thanks

I believe what you’re referring to is where the up fitter switches would mount.

Nope not the upfitter. Those are already installed. These wires are to the left of the upftter switches, plus there are only two wires

Does your truck have the power port to the left of the up fitters ?

Think I found the answer. Looking at an exploded view of the dash, there is an optional cover over this cubby labeled for the passenger airbag on/off switch is located. Only on the regular and suber cab. SInce mine is a crew cab, not an option. Thanks for the help.

Huh, my 2012 doesn’t have that, but mine’s a crew cab also, so that explains why. Mine only has the power port in that location, and nothing else.

Well looking at my truck I have two power points on my dash, one on the right side like yours and one in the area you have circled in your photo. I don’t recall having any other connector in that area on mine.
