Default Brake light

It appears that my foot brake light is working however the hand brake light not. How do I fix that?

I'll second that, we need to know the model year before we can advise a course of action.

71590-92A brake light switch clam shell on bar
However, there are 4 models. You check

https://partsfinder.onlinemicrofiche...avidsonmc&a=92

Know you've been around a while but... Make your next new post over in the new member area...

Welcome from North Beach, FL., USA!

Just in case you have not done this and I recommend this only as a suggestion....

Add a Signature Line in your USER set up for your bike year, model, and all the letters that Harley recognizes it with. Others will see it at the bottom which enables them to know your exact model if you ever ask a question. All Harleys are not the same and year and all the model letters make a big difference.

Also, add an Avatar of your favorite shot in the USER setup for the small picture others will see in the top left corner of your post.

It's also very helpful to read the 'HDF Site Rules' listed at the top of the new member area.


​​You're all set.... Enjoy the ride! ______________

I would check the switch for your hand brake lever. Have you done any work on the controls or handlebar?

Ref:# 26
71590-92A
SWITCH KIT STOPLAMP
This part replaces 71574-82.
