I'm going to guess that it's your brake light failure indicator switch. If I'm right, it's the part that senses that your taillight bulb has burned out, and lights the indicator on your dasboard that says "Brake." You probably don't need to do anything about it unless you are having a problem with function of the brake light failure warning. I know mine looked pretty bad, but still worked just fine.
