Thumbs down Ford Puma - Rear tailgate brake light not working


Can anyone supply a copy of the wiring diagram for this area or help in solving the problem
Actions so far
- removed light and confirmed that it works
- cleaned boot lid plunger contacts
- checked wiring it does not appear to go back to the plunger

Which plunger works the rear light or does it come straight off the brake lights??

Iirc the gas strut acts as the +12v for the third brake light, might be wort checking the contacts around that?
