Reese you owe me a dollar. I knew it wasn't a short/ground because no fuses would blow. I pulled the console and the wires to my rotary switch were loose. put them back on then whala.
Then I thought I had another problem and my wiring was backwards, but the wires all match. My brake light wouldn't turn off and it was pissing me off. I'd push the hand brake button and then it went off. I was like what the hell. Who would have known that it's *** backwards. Normal operation is the brake lever always presses the button in and when you squeeze the front brake the button is released into a little crack on the lever and turns on the brake light. So I put the front wheel back on installed the right controls and everything work. So gay, but at least I don't have to tear the bars down.

Crap you can keep your dollar. Maybe you can buy yourself an ice cube for your drink at bike week. I'd love to go if I didn't live in the NW corner of the US.
