The brake lights are controlled by a
pressure-activated switch that screws into the under
side of the master cylinder. And they work even if
the car's ignition is turned off.
The thing on the brake is probably for the auto-pilot.
Sometimes people wire their own brake light switch on
the pedal because the pressure switch is a little slow
to respond and they can leak eventually. So it could
be that too, but if it was it would probably look odd
because it would not be original.
