The fact that the 2 pigtails go to the seat leads me to believe something like that. Does the car have heated seats? Wire colors would help, maybe, doesn't look like a GM plug though, especially with the separate black wire traing off somewhere.
I don't recall a power passenger seat option. heated seats is RPO KA1.
Heaed seat connector ha 4 pins; Dk-BU. pink and 2 black.
Could be the passenger presence sensor; maybe somebody removed the pass airbag.
No, no heated seats. Isn't the connector at the bottom of the seat the occupancy sensor? The airbag light still comes on/off if the seat is occupied. Let me get back in there with a flashlight and I'll get the wire colors. Thought I had them with the flash...
That separate black wire in the background is from some equipment I have behind the seat. Ignore that.. I should have pointed that out, I suppose.

Could be a PO item. The way it's wrapped it looks "factory". I'm not going to unwrap it all to try to find where it goes, I'll just see what's live and what isn't and take some voltage readings. A GPS tracker makes sense (or data logger) as this was a fleet vehicle - one previous owner (or company) before me.
It would be a great guess if I had heated seats :-). Weird thing is it's only under the passenger seat. I haven't seen the same end under the drivers. But it's strange that the colors match with the harness to the schematic, though missing a few leads. Guess those would go to the switch(es). Hmmm.... I have the fabric seats..... wonder if I could add..... :-) I'll have to look again under the driver's seat tomorrow..

:-) Yeah, I thought about that. I'll have to see if there is a harness hiding under the drivers seat. But then I'd have to run a harness, buy the panel switch etc.... Heated seats are not a necessity. But after driving a Jeep with heated steering wheel.. that's something I'd like!
Don - I think you pinned it: they are seat heater harness ends. There was one under the drivers seat - it was just stuffed up in the frame so I couldn't see it. That harness that you circled is undoubtedly the seat occupancy sensor. I think the heat harness plugs into the seat itself, like on my wife's Mini Cooper. But no matter - both "ends" are missing the critical blue wire for the temp signal from the dash switch. On a positive note, I now have two switched hots that I can tap into for light weight stuff... like a remote GPS system for my aftermarket stereo and a dash cam!
