Default What is the second cable on throttle body?

I have a 4.7L V8, 2005 Ram 1500.

In the image below where the arrow is pointing. What is this cable for? I know the left one goes to the gas pedal, the right one goes to a cylinder looking thing in the front left under the battery.

Thanks,

Robert

Cruise control lol. The hemi doesn't have this since it has an electronic TB so everything is directly controlled by the PCM.

He said it’s a 4.7, not a hemi, lol. It is not electronic. That is the cruise control cable. (Hence, “second cable”).

OMFG you're both retards lol...I KNOW it's a 4.7, I was COMPARING it to a hemi TB, hence why I first said, "Cruise control lol.", THEN my comment about a hemi TB. Comparing it to a hemi TB may have been extraneous, but doesn't erase the fact that I said cruise control first and both you morons went right past it LMFAO
