Is there anything that doesn't work? Does the vehicle have a rearview with compass/temp, or an automatic HVAC system? I would guess that it is for an outside temp sensor, but if your vehicle has neither of the above, it may be wired for provision.

The ac is not working at all now. It was cooling only while I was driving then I began hearing a loud noise when the ac was on and it started to blow only hot air while driving. I was thinking it was a connector for a fan. One day when I got out of the truck, I noticed that the fans were on(something I never heard when exiting). I never heard them again. Guess I should take it to a mechanic...

Is it a two wire connector, and can you tell me what the color of the wires are?

It tells me it is a two wire connector, which an outside sensor is. Looking in service info, it makes no reference to outside temperature. It shows only a manual HVAC system, which pays no mind to outside temp. Does your mirror, or info display outside temperature. The way the connector is all taped up pretty and neat, it may not apply to anything on your vehicle. Like I said, it could either be an uplevel provision, possibly for another carline that uses the same platform, or another vehicle that uses the same harness.
