The Germans favoured brown for earth rather than black but since so much wiring gets changed and people don't always stick to logical colours that one you found could be related to anything so I wouldn't ground it without checking. If you can find where it goes to, you can at least narrow it down. Often its the plug on the back of the dashpod that causes interior lights to play up though.

the main plug that goes to the dash has 3 wires that are live but unsure which one powers the dash lights ?

It's the grey/blue wire.
