Does it turn maybe 45degrees?
From when I had it all apart, think it's the flap for fresh air / recycled air in the heater, Peanutcrusher.

I've got that on mine, certainly not a sensor plug, not sure it does anything, I think it's a bit of a third nipple, it's there but serves no particular function

Not 100% sure but if you have manual air con like mine then its connected to that, if its the posher digital air con then its not connected.

I thought it was to adjust the flap to recirculate air etc. Ours is manual A/C.
Here's a couple photos of my dirty example,

with all the gubbings ...........
(Note to self... Must tidy up the wires for coolant sensor.)

Its a flap on the winter/semi winter models - to take less cold air into the cab in v. cold conditions

Mines just like brora's.......apart from the wiring...

....... Manual Air Con but not a "winterised" Northern Bongo..
