Default Neutral light issues.

So the other day I noticed my neutral light was flicking while shifting gears. Then next thing I know it comes on and stays. It slowly fades like a battery going dead. Any Ideas.

Sometimes just taking the switch out and cleaning it will fix it.

Well it seems to only be an issue when I have ridden 50+ miles. Like When it gets good and hot.

Mine stayed on all the time. Replaced the switch and it's all good. Easy fix.

Thanks guys. I just haven't taken the time to look at it yet. Should be easy enough when I get around to it, just wanted some good input from others who've had the same issue. I'm kinda like you, it ain't messing anything else up right now so I'll get to it when I get a round tuit. Later
