Identify this connector PLEASE!!!

[davidjurss]

Hey everyone...I really need some help identifying a connector. I have been trying to figure out why my rear window defroster isnt working, and as I was looking under the dash I happened to find this connector just hanging there...and I cant find anything that its supposed to be connected to. If anyone knows...PLEASE help!

BTW...this is on an 88 Mustang GT.

Used for the cooling fan controller on a 2.3L. On a 5.0L it just hangs.

Actually, I think it is suppposed to be connected to the cruise control module. The module is a flat rectangular white box mounted to the left of the steering column behind the fuse panel. If your car was originally equipped with cruise, it may have been taken out at some time before you bought the car.

As for the rear defroster, the wire comes off the starter relay, has a fusible link, runs across the top of the radiator, under the air filter box, over the passenger side strut tower, through the firewall, across the base of the windshield behind the dash and into the defroster switch. Then out of the switch across the driver side dash, down to the driver side rocker, behind the rear interior 1/4 panel, up the rear wheel well, then up to the grommet that goes through to the hatch. The wire is a thick yellow one. Check for power at the switch, then for power at the connector at the driver side wheel well.

Is this the cruise control module? Its the only thing I could find under the dash that fit the description. Only thing is...there are 2 plugs already plugged in to it.

That's because I already told you what the connector was for and I wasn't guessing.
