No, thats the fuel pump ground
Fuel pump ground is at the rear frame..... fuel pump relay coil ground is a ground pulse generated by the ECM (pin 22)....... I have a couple Mustangs at the shop, but just to show you, here is the diagram specification, including the ground locations.

Wow... I guess I'm wrong... I looked it up and that connector does look like it grounds the computer and relays. I just figured that when this is disconnected the fuel pump don't kick on figured ths was the ground. (There is also another long story to why I thought this)

Anyway... my bad...

Again not to be a smart ***, but I swear that says 6.0L at the top of it. It may just be the craptastic pic quality though.

Yep....it's the craptastic resolution of the pic....LOL..... anyway, even if it was a 6.0L diesel (which doesn't use a MAF)...... the EEC-IV ground design is basically the same (for gasoline engines) regardless of the engine size and/or model.

If you look at the pic below (Explorer fender apron)... the 2 black wires bolted to the fender, are the EEC PWR GND wires,

There are 2 ppl I feel when it comes to knowing any part of the electrical system and it’s components on a Mustang are Joel 5.0 and JRichker.

This is what Jrichker has to say about that same ground wire; read post #4
