Default Run and turn functions work correctly

Hi all,
I have a 2008 Rocker, with integrated run/turn/brake lights.
When I apply the brakes the brake lights flash once and then go back to 'run' brightness.
Same effect with either front of back brake.
Run and turn functions work correctly.

Sounds like either a bad earth or dodgy microswitches (less likely if both front and back brake are affected)

Are they aftermarket? Original did not have that, so you may check the wiring of the "new" lights?

Did you get it new? Sounds like you have a custom dynamics adapter triple play that lets you program your lights. Anything under the seat?

Welcome to the forum from central Texas.

It's possible the run/brake/turn module is bad.
