99 Wires on frame rail...

Hey guys, I notice I have a plug under my truck, and Its connected to a brown wire with a line on it, and an orange wire. They go down to the rear of the truck on the inside of the frame. Does anyone one know what those wires are for? Thanks!

It would help to know exactly where the plug is, which frame rail, and what year your truck is.

Brown wire is usually running lights, but how could we know if it was added by the previous owner?
