Default Hood Sensor

Hey Guys got a question because Im to lazy to crawl around and chase wires.

I notice there look like to be a sensor near wear the hood latches on, what the hell is it for or is it for the obvious to let me know my hood open. I know it not to the light on the hood. ANy how im tired of chasin wires so I fiqure Id be lazy and ask to see if some one knows. Like i need it anyhow.

Thanks guys have a great night!!!!!...

I do believe I fiqured it out, while I wasnt tired as hell. The wire from this ''sensor'' goes to the hood light. Guess it completes the circuit for the light switch so I dont have a parasitic load when I dont need it. Dumb question to ask I guess.
