Anyone know how to adjust the front brake light switch at the lever? I put new bars on but now when I apply the cruise control, the slightest bump it disengages. It's on my 09 Ultra.
Thanx for the input. I fixed it. I'll explain in case someone needs this fix too. look at where the flat part of the brake lever that contacts the plunger switch. It's just a really small rubber covered push switch. I opened the switch housing and removed the brake lever braket cap. I noticed it's just in the switch housing and can't adjust it. So I took a key chain, you know the ones that are rubbery
you get free with something, it's 1/8" thick. I cut a 1/4" circle from the rubbery thing. Took some emery cloth, roughed the small spot on the lever that contacts the switch and the rubbery piece. I used Loktite super glue and clued it to the lever. Put everything back together and now the lever has about 1/4" of pull before the brake lights come on. Worked perfectly and cost zero and about an hour of time.
