That's your park, or emergency, brake mechanism. Goes by the left foot.

Edit: You had an arrow I missed. And I can't tell. Can you take a closer pic?

That looks like the switch that turns on the “brake” warning light on the dash.

I believe Jonathan is correct. Before reinstalling the parking brake mechanism, lubricate all moving parts.

I believe that acts much like a door switch, if I recall correctly.
