I believe my switch is bad.No worky with either brake and swapped brake relay with starter,and bike fires right up.
I dont want to leave my bike at the dealer for a week for this darn switch.Wandering if it'spossible for them to give me the part under warranty?Anyone have luck with the service department on warranty items,or do i have to let them do it?
It's a fairly simple install.
If that does not work then jump the switch with a single wire and turn the bike on light should light when jumped. If it lights with the switch jumped then the switch is bad. However thereare 2 switches one for back brake and on for front. Never known a dealer to give you a part to put on under warranty then they loose money on the hours worked.
As mentioned above, you have two brake switches, and it is pretty uncommon for BOTH to fail at once. you already checked one common factor (relay) the other three are the fuse, bulb , wiring. (May want to check plug at top of back fender also.

I thinks you better try a bulb.
And probably first you should try the fuse......... if you have cruise installed, if it works fuse ok if not fuse blown. (Same fuse circuit is Brake/Cruise on RK)
Fuse is under left side cover, cable end of fuse block, top fuse, 15 amp
