Default Where does this connector go?

The 1978 928 BaT project is continuing to progress. My son and I have gotten the interior to a point we're happy with for now. It's far from show quality, but we're eager to put some miles on it.

We've moved our attention to the engine area. Following a lot of cleaning, we've isolated and corrected some leaks, dug into the windshield washer system (wish we hadn't), changed plugs, freshened fluids, and replaced belts. This stray connector is stumping us, though. It comes out of a harness toward the front passenger side of the engine bay just under the jump post. It's just a single large blade connector. It's not all that long, so we thought we'd figure out where it went, but no luck so far. While we're at it, any idea what it does?
