Post New Truck - Help Identifying Things?

I just bought a 1995 OBS Ford F-150 Eddie Baur 4x4 5.0L V8 EFI on Facebook Marketplace.
It came with all kinds of parts I have to put back on and new parts to install. There are also loose or disconnected conectors.
I need help identifying some of them, if anyone has any input.




Included With Purchase - Unknown Install Location
I researched the part number online and only got replacement parts of the same with no description of what it's for.




Driver Rear
Red wire. There's a similar disconnected/cut wire toward where the front tank was.
The front tank was removed, and supposedly the rear tank was replaced with new.
There's also a random inline fuel pump thing mounted underneath with a similar new red wire running across and connected directly to my battery.
I am having fuel pressure issues, so I am replacing my injectors, fuel pump, and fuel pressure regulator as I don't trust his work or know what he did exactly to stock fuel setup.
Any ideas will help. I'll add more pictures of the inline fuel pump soon.







Also, Under Center of Dashboard


I also thought it was odd there is hardly any lighting in this one. There is only the door lights, and a single dome light. I remember my mother had an older Eddie Baur when I was younger of the same model, and it had a back seat light and foot lighting under the dashboard. I can't seem to find any sign of it on mine and was wondering if maybe it was cut out or simply wasn't the option on my make. -And if anyone has any suggestions where I can splice my own in at, that would be awesome.

Pretty sure that 7-pin connector goes to the dinger box (key in, lights on, etc.). The box would be above the gas pedal and a little inboard with the pins pointing down. Not sure about the other items.

Year? Model? What does it say on the part? Did you look up the part number?

The EB truck is a high end package were yours may be a low end package and would not have the same options like lights.
Most plugs that dont have anything in them are for the higher end package trucks.
You just need to find the option you want from a junk yard truck along with the harness and just plug it into your truck in most cases.
I know for the 80 - 86 trucks for the most part that is how it works, under dash & hood lights, dome map lights, clock.

Go to E-Bay, purchase factory manual on CD for year of truck.

Will give you location & # of connectors for individual circuits & their wiring colors so you can verify.

Will give you accurate info & save you massive headaches.

That would explain the door chime not working. Thank you!

Awesome, Thank you everyone. I'll purchase the CD today and look around the junk yard.
I also updated my post with more information and removed resolved information.
I will add more photos soon of the in line fuel pump they added.

Remove anything that does not look factory
That wire in the back looks like a power feed wire for a trailer battery
That connector under the dash with the round connectors is trailer towing
Would be factory if it had a tow package too
The EB you have is a high line truck, and most likely does have a bunch of the wiring for fog lamps, trailer tow etc.

In your signature line you can add year, trim & powertrain so that those helping can assist better.

Doesn't show on mobile view, but aids the forum.

Good luck with your truck.
