Do you have power adjustable pedals? Mine is just below the light switch. Don't remember the color of the plug though.

Brake controller cables are buried behind/below the parking brake.

Without knowing details about your truck, maybe its the connector if you had automatic headlights or something like that. A different switch connector for different option packages. Or a fog light switch. If everything is working like it should I would not worry about it.

like post just above.. a factory option.... not on your truck.. unless something is not working.

Dodge most likely use 2 of 3 inside truck wiring harnesses.. for all the Ram bodies.. and options...
plug in or not .. doing down the production line
