Does any one know where its for?

There is usually temperature sensors for your dashboard and ecu in bumper. Warning i am writing top of my head again.

'i don't see any picture or attachment to be sure what you are talking about.

However, trying to recall what is there. There could be a black wire if I recall for the security system if someone tries to open the hood with the alarm set, there is also the altitude sensor mounted by the hood latch. Can't think of anything else.

The 2nd item I would expect to throw a code if not connected.

Here is the sensor

It could be a water level sensor for the windshield washer fluid bottle warning light?

I think you nailed it. I was clueless and stumped

Yep that's the washer fluid lever sensor, I've had to replaced mine before.

I got tired of breaking my coolant level sensor I finally wrote a note to myself on top to remind me

Thanks for the reply's
In the first picture there is only the connector.
I will check the coolant or washer fluid sensor.
The sensor now was put in some hole in the cars metal frame behind the headlights
