Handbrake Warning Light Connection

Somehow, God knows how, the thin black wire that goes from the handbrake switch to the fuse box has fallen off at the fuse box end. For the life of me I can't figure out where it plugs into on the fuse box.

Would really appreciate any help here.

Thanks in advance.

According to Haynes that black wire goes back to a single connector in the dash with grey/green wire and a blue/brown wire. The grey/green wire goes to the warning lamp and the blue/brown back to the fuse box with an internal link to the brake fluid level sender. That single connector is separate to the fusebox though.

Sorry not much help as I can't say exactly where to find that connector. A push to break switch earths to the body making the circuit when the handbrake is applied. Refitted the interior back to mine yesterday so not easy to go hunting for it now.
