cut wires under my master brake cylinder

Ok first off my brakes just havent been working that great and they feel like they are manual not power brakes.... looking around today to find that there are two cut wires that are under the master brake cylinder, its a shiny aluminum spacer then it is covered by a rubber boot in the underneath the center of the cylinder...get that? so my question is what are those two wires or what connector does it go to and could this be my lack of braking problem....

The only wires that connect to the master cylnder go to the fluid resivior to the fluid level sensor. No cut wires will affect how your brakes work. (unless you have abs then i dont know) Check to make sure that your brake booster hose is still intact.

It travels from the upper drivers side of the brake booster up to a metal pipe on connected to the firewall over about center of the firewall... into a rubber hose and then into the intake manifold.

check your vacume lines just to make sure..

The wires are for something else becouse i looked in the fsm and their is no wires that come off of the master cylnder exept the fluid level sensor ones.
