[QUOTE="dbvolfan, post: 908178, member: 2122"] Looking for some advice here as I thought I had it nailed down but the 'fix' didn't work. The rear brake light will not come on when the front brake lever is activated. I first cleaned and then finally replaced the front brake switch assembly (the small component just under the front brake lever). Still not working. I figured it was that switch for sure as this bike rides a lot in the rain and snow and 7 yrs of grime could wear that contact out. The rear lights do work and the brake lights work fine when the rear brakes are applied. Any advice on what to check next? I'll try to dig into the SVC manual a bit more tonight as well. [/QUOTE]
