unconnected connector
I found an unconnected connector in the right side of my engine bay. I believe the connector is blue. I should post a pic to be more clear. Anyone have an idea of what this connector is used for?

You're right, a picture would help.

I will take a pic of the connector in the morning. It is mounted to the left of the right headlight next to the airbox.

Welcome to the Forum! 
If it's in front of the right cooling fan/radiator, it's for your under hood light. Some people unhook this connector for car shows. The other end of the connector should be directly below it.

I am betting it is the connector for the hood lamp. Many that show their car will unplug it to keep the light from coming on. Like JD said, a pick would help to be sure.
