Default Front brake light switch

I was told by some one thayt my brake light flashes when Im riding down the road, checked it out and found that the front brake lever isnt pressing the switch all of the way so it causes it to flash on and off. Is there a fix for this?

If the switch isn't broken, loosen the screws on both housings(brake & switch housing), push them together and hold while you tighten them back up. Test.
