Help I have an wiring issue

I had this issue with my Charger once. Found out that when I installed the brake light bulb (which has two hot prongs), one of the 2 connections in the light socket was grounding out against the inside of the socket itself. Kinda hard to explain but the picture might help.

Seen that before, and sometimes one of the little springs under the contact plate is broken and laying against the terminal.

To the OP:
Where did the rear harness get disconnected from?
Under the drivers side floor kick panel or carpet?
