Brake light switch is gone...easy fix.

  • Anonymous Mar 10, 2011

    Before condemning switch....look at the plunger on the switch that the lever rests against...the plunnger can stick in, so when the lever is moved you get no brake light.

Brake light and turn lights

Check the signal fuse in the fuse box. it is a 10 amp fuse. If that signal fuse is out, You would also not have a horn or neutral light as well.

Brake light quit working on my 97 R 1100 RT. Fuse is good and neither front brake or rear brake action will allow the rear brake lights to come on. Does the brake light route through the flasher relay?...

I thought the brake light has its own feed from the battery as the brake light works with or without ignition on mine. Maybe a blown fuse or poor earth. Check for 12 volts on the switches.

Change vstar 1100 motor cycle tire

Howdy: Front, jack stand, pull calibers with brake hose connected and set aside. Unbolt axle clamps each side. You home free. For the rear,
juck stand, loosen rear axle nut. Pull calibers, set aside. Need to wiggle
tire backward so the driveshaft pulls out. thats about it. Puttin the front and rear back on you will need help for alignment. Goog luck - Doug

Brake lighht does not work from front or rear lever, bulbs are fine.

Please check both switches - one on the handle bar and the other on the foot petal.

To prove or disprove, unplug then and short them out. If you short the harness out and the light llights, replace the switch.

You can also check the fuse in the fuse box ...
