I *think* the only wiring in the trunk lid is for the 3rd brake light. It is probably a DIY 3rd brake light flasher. Either have a friend press the brake or set your phone up behind your car recording and press the brake to see if it does anything fancy. Stock is just a solid light like the other tail lights.

EDIT: Or the previous owner installed one that wasn't plug and play and that is whats left after they removed it.

That is my bet as well. Or adding in something like LED lighting if it did not have it.
