well the one that is plugged in, is the water separator bowl heater. The other one may be the low oil level circuit, which lights a lamp in the idiot panel below the low oil pressure idiot light(looks like it has a weather plug in it). they put the low oil level circuit in the A0 wiring harness and idiot panel but did not put in a level sensor for it...

Straight down below that area at the bottom of the block is a small oil pressure manifold tapped off the oil gallery. it has the electric oil gauge sender and the 15PSI low oil pressure switch which should have harness connections...

Given the 3116's oil line of death issues it certainly is unfortunate they didn't fully implement that feature.

Not the only improvement they made with later trucks. The A1 was awarded by the military for being twice as reliable as the previous A0 trucks and THE most reliable vehicle in terms of MTBF that the Army has ever purchased.

The A0 was quite literally half baked compared to the revised trucks in reliability metrics.
