2002 electric schematics question

[Dre]

Anyone with a schematics for a 2002 Explorer... I have found an electric plug behind a radio and was wondering what that thing is for... any ideas?

I'm 99% sure thats the trailer brake controller connector. Mine was tied up and tucked away like that. Even if you dont have the towing package, the wiring is there.

it's hiden behind the dashboard on the passenger side.

yep, that's the trailer brake controler wiring. I thought it was odd it was on the passenger side, since most people locate the brake controler on the driver side in easy reach.
