those are 4-C electronically controlled suspension dampers off the V and S60R mainly what car have you got? All 4 dampers should have these with plugs into the car's loom ...

Indeed that will be it , but should the car have them I wonder ... or had the plug been torn off the one side .

You have a V70R, the previous owner replaced the 4C with standard strut but only on one side. May also look closer just in case it was involved in an accident on that side. How many miles/km on it ?
