Do an electrical test to see if AC or DC.
The 3 pin connection looks like it could be AC.
Based on location, it may have been for a spotlight.

Thanks Jim and Shadow. I think Jim nailed it! I found the very connector online, it's part number M81180. It must be abandoned in my case, since the P.O updated the autopilot to a Simrad system, keeping the Raymarine linear drive. Maybe I can take Shadow's lead, and use it for spotlight power!
