External plug help!

[Dirk]

Behind the front wheel well on each side, I have this plug hanging down.



I haven't been able to put a volt/ohm meter to it yet to find out what gives it power..

Anyone know what it is for?

It may be for running board lights or something. I'm not sure.

i have the same thing and ford told me it was for the abs system hook up to the brakes

[Dirk]

That's odd. I have a completely different line going to the front brakes for ABS.

i asked when i bought it. cause i noticed it hanging there and teh ford tech said teh guy who owed it before probly put calipers on there w/o abs and thats were it connects but i am no ford tech so i do not just passing info that i was told.

That's cool. I'm still scratching my head on this. I put a volt\ohm meter to it, nothing so far. Tried lights, interior, blah blah blah.. The only other thing I could possibly try is tone. maybe get lucky at the fuse box.

those are front wheel speed sensor connectors. Not all trucks have 4 wheel abs but they still put the connectors there. Your truck has rear abs only. That is normal, dont mess with them.

^^ What he said, I din't have 4w ABS on my 99 and has those plugs behind the fender liner. On my 03 they are plugged into the front wheel sensors.
