Electrical wiring has come loose from connector under the airbox.

Appears to be 2 wires for some type of sensor?

Would like to know what this connector is for please.

The "type" of connector - is hard to tell, not enough "Area" to see by to ID other spots by this line to identify where this line is in aspect to the intake and motor orientation - but there is a line it bolts to.

There are two routes of thinking...

IF the line routes to the front - towards the Radiator - then most likely it is for the AC condenser line and senses it's refrigerant pressure - so you may not have AC climate control due to those wires being off like that. (Comes from AC compressor)

If the line routes to the ENGINE - follow that line to see if it goes to (or close to) the intake throttle body (does it follow the airbox snorkel? Then onto a fuel rail line to the injectors?) Then it is a Fuel Pressure sender unit. (if that's the Fuel Line it's connected to - and it does use it to determine pressures it will crank but won't start the engine unless it knows there is fuel pressure)

The clues I have to work with are the Exhaust Heat shield "corrugated" appearance so this might be Fuel line sender.

Looks like an air conditioning pressure switch. Although it is not in the correct location for a American ford product.
