I don't recognize it offhand but Rangers sold in Canada and certain northern U.S. states come standard with a block heater and possibly also a battery heater. Since you live in Minnesota, check the freeze plug locations on the side of the block to see if yours has a block heater - it could be the connector for that or for a battery heater.

If it aint broke, don't fix it.

BTW: Bob meant it connects to a block/battery heater...not that IT was the heater...
