Also check the wiring that passes from the car to the tailgate. This flexes every time the tailgate is opened and closed, and wires fray and break. Quite a problem already on 500s.
As the buzzing is at the rear, that could be where the short is. Peel back the protective gaiter and check the wires carefully. Also check the earth wire from the tailgate, in the side of the boot somewhere, a black wire from the tailgate.
The rear wiper will have a feed all the time when the ignition is on, to power the self-park. If this is shorting to the brake light, it will find an earth path the wrong way down the wire to the fuse box. Disconnecting it removes that path. When you brake, you supply power to the light, which is not earthing through its expected route, and is finding its way into the wiper motor, but with insufficient power to run the motor, hence the buzzing.
If mine, I'd start at the tailgate.
