Anyone else can chime in but I think it is to the cigarette lighter...at least it looks identical to it. I included a link with the cigarette lighter removal and it shows a similar connector and the blue one next to it goes in the same area.

That is definitely not the plug for the cig lighter, the cig lighter plug is blue and not that close to the ecu and is part of the a/c and radio harness.

Now IIRC, my stock SC harness had one white plug that went to nothing, and I have seen a few others. But being that its on your engine harness, it is most likely not the culprit of not getting any lights on your cluster. You need to check all your fuses, and the dimmer switch.

That might be the optional "not used" car phone plug...directly underneath the console? Just a thought.

That plug you encirled in red is what they call the short plug .. usually nothing is connected . Depending on your model number maybe a 4 pin or 6 pin connector. Most of those wires on that connector are paralleled to other connectors already .

here is a diagram where you will find that connector
