It's inside the hand grip housing. A rubber boot protrudes behind the front brake lever that gets pressed in by the lever anytime you apply the front brakes and should turn your brake lights on. You can't really see it without taking stuff apart.

be real careful if you take it aprt, and it is much more dangerous when you put the lever back on you could snap the little plastic contact point and then your screwed you need another new sitch!
