Please help, brake issue!

Last week my brake assembly finally stopped working. I made a deal with a guy on here and got a used one. I put it in yesterday, filled it with fluid and now the pedal goes all the way to the floor. I mean no resistance at all. I expect that the system needs to be bled and I will do that tomorrow when I get off work. Is there anything else I should check before during or after. On the front of the master cylinder is a small two-prong connector. I plugged it in but found another one just like it underneath the master cylinder, this one has a type of mesh heat shield around it. Where does this one go? I looked at the master cylinder that I took off and there is no where else on there that has another connection like that, besides the one that's already hooked up. Any help here greatly appreciated. Also I dont here the typical under-hood click when the key is turned. I guess that would be the accumulator charging. Would the presence of air in the system keep it from charging?
