Brake light

Hi guys,

I have an issue with my 08 Streetbob: The brake light works when using the front brake. It doesn't when depressing the rear brake - pressing the pedal will not activate the brake light.

Any ideas ?

I read something about a rear switch , were is this located ?

Thanks

John

The rear break light switch is right behind the banjo bolt connected to the rear brake reservoir. There should be some wires coming out of it, that might have come undone.

I have the same problem...the pressure switch needs to be replaced. Look at the line from your rear brake cylinder and you will see it. Its underneath the bike right after the line exits the cylinder.
