does anyone know what this is? it wasnt plugged up,but also wasnt sure if it shouldve been or not

I'm pretty sure that needs to be plugged into the rail module above the fusebox, lemme see what I can find.

Are there any electrical functions that aren't working?

As far as I know, all my electrical functions work. I'm just trying to find out what should be basically. I'm pretty much a dummy when it comes to these cars.  I think I make everything harder than what it is.

Wow.  I guess it should be plugged up.  Lol.  I hate when others work on my car. Geesh.  Lemme go back and check it out.  Thanks Supersix.

I plugged that piece in.  The car didnt blow up so I suppose everything is ok.  I wonder what it was for though....

I think it's just a capacitor to filter interference for the radio +12v circuit.

You're correct. That big black connector with the orange wire leading to the little metal can is the radio capacitor.  Keeps noise off the power line to the radio.
