Found this while installing some new center console electronics. Anyone have an idea what it's for?

10-pin male connector with a white housing/she'll and 6 installed pins. The connector is loose (not connected) and located near the shifter. Ignore all the dirt and grime from the PO, I cleaned thoroughly before reinstalling everything.

2015 DCLB base, 4X4, auto trans, SR5, tow package.

I think it’s for the power inverter, that powers the rear outlet in the bed, on the Sport and Off-road models.

Yup, power inverter that lives under the center console box and powers the rear bed outlet if equipped.
