It is plugged into either the bracket or the side of the brake light switch. Car is a 70 Challenger. I cannot tell as I had rotator cuff surgery and cannot get all the way down there to see it. It is the dark red terminal coming off on the side of the bracket. WP_20141121_011.jpg

It does not look like a factory connector, so there is no telling where it goes. Trace the wire back and see where it goes.

The brake switch is a power source that is many times used for alarms or aftermarket audio equipment. I'll bet it had something to do with one of those things.

I know this wire must be serving as a ground of some sort as I have blinkers, tail lights with headlights on but no brake lights. If I tap into the brown wire running to the back the brake lights will work on one side.

How does this make any since?

Is there a ground that goes to the harness that feeds the brake lights?

bOOsted.

I would suspect that this wire went to an aftermarket Cruise Control. Stepping on the brake would shut it off.
