I don't think that's a Vaquero part. My guess is it's an adapter cord for whatever LED bulb someone has put in there. You might need to swap out your headlight bulb for a new one.

That's not OEM. OEM has an H4 head light bulb.

As Peg stated it's aftermarket. Look at the wire harness, you should find an H4 female plug that is plugging into your LED light wire harness.

I was thinking the same thing. Plug them together and tape the joint so it can't come loose.
