Default 2000 XJ junction block connector?

I traced a short on the IOD fuse to a connector on the junction box. Can anyone please help ID the connector? I only have haynes book and it doesn't have enough info.

Connector in yellow?

It's C7!
I found the FSB online here!: Jeep - Cherokee (XJ) - Factory Service Manual - 2000 - Version 1 - OCR - 2100 pages.pdf (archive.org)
The upside of a 22 year old Jeep is the FSM is free online I guess.

Good job

In a quick search for you on the net (not in my FSM) during my shift, could find almost all fuses etc except those bottom two and on the left side

Thanks for the replies! The good/bad news is the short circuit seems to have "healed". My theory is water getting in somewhere near liftgate that causes a short because of water pooled around the liftgate striker plate (learned a new term there!). Then when it dries out the short is gone! With an ohm meter the resistance went from ~90 ohms to around 500 overnight. I didn't do anything. The FSM says 24mA draw when car is off which is around 500 ohms @ 12V. Time to get the hose out I guess?

Water pooled in area shown in blue.
