Not sure what it was but I am fairly sure it was something aftermarket. So that's why it doesn't show up on your diagrams.

That's totally possible being that this was city metro bus at one time. There were a variety of "aftermarket" things installed that I've been removing piece by piece.

@Nero to me it looks like the power wire is removed. All I see is a cheaply terminated ground wire looped to one of its mounting screws.
That was my primary reason for thinking aftermarket, and the fact I have never seen anything mounted like that in that location.

@Nero, that's correct, like @Rdnck84_03 said it would have just had a single spade connector going to it. I did find one loose wire in the area that seems to have had the end chewed off. I'll test that for voltage later when it's not 110° in the sun.

@LowTech It is a vacuum solenoid, but I am not sure for what. Check the vacuum lines going to your transmission if you have a C6 and make sure those are good and that they didn't route through that unit. I'd guess some sort of cruise control or HVAC control function.

Maybe for rear HVAC?

No C6 here, just the infamous E40D.
That is very possible. It did have a rear heater box that we pulled out and I can almost guarantee that it had cutoff valve inline. The control for it would have been in the overhead, so definitely not a mechanical one.
Anyway it's gone now. Less is more (friendly).
