Well here's the diagram from your manual. If you download the PDf all you have to do is search "brake lamp switch" and it'll show you all the pinouts and diagrams.
Looks like the 3rd brake light doesn't have it's own circuit. Power goes from the fuse block to pin 5 of the switch, then from pin 6 through several connectors until it splits off to the left/right/3rd brake light.
Bare metal is definitely a condition for a short to ground though so it's a good find!
