Default unidentified electrical connection






hi all,

does anybody have a clue what the attached photos relate to?

i was rust treating and painting the panel underneath the air filter housing when i came across it. whatever it used to be has corroded away and left this....possibly a spring in there too as i found remnants of one in there also.

as always, any help greatly appreciated
