Default Near the middle domelight: What does this connector attach to?

I'm finally getting around to reinstalling my headliner after having it off for close to a year in order to reseal the sunroofs and paint some of the trim pieces black.

There is what looks to be a ground connector at the middle domelight that I haven't found a home for. The backside of the domelight does not have a connector for it to attach to. The length of the wire the clip is at the end of is consistent with belonging to the middle domelight.
The homeless connector is circled in red.

Thanks for viewing this post.
The harness clip at the very top clips into the domelight. The circled clip does not have an obvious connector to attach to.

If you truck has/had rear a/c, there was a fan speed slider back there. It could be related to that.

Thank you for your reply. The two connectors that are circled in yellow attach to the rear AC controller switch. I couldn't find a place for a third.

If you don't get a quick answer, then the D2 wiring diagrams that are part of the workshop manual (RAVE) is extremely detailed and will show what the connector is for.

I remember there's one black connector that doesn't go anywhere but I always think it attaches to the open tab on the sunroof motor.

Also though, remember that there are two black connectors like those that get attached as the ground to the metal frame the front-most and rear-most lights mount to.

Thank you, gentlemen. I'll drop the back half of the headliner this weekend and take a look. I never intentionally disconnected any wires to the sunroofs, but perhaps I inadvertently did.
