when i turn my ignition on.. and try to elecy start it .. it wont go ?? the brake light doesnt come on when i pull the lever in.. but when the bike is running from kick starting it.. (if i turn my lights on) the brake light works (when pull the lever it IS brighter) what could this be ? any help apreciated.. ben.
got the little black box off.. and its got nothing in it lol.. jsut says 27v on it.. where else could it be cause i cant see it near the battery
got it .. its blow .. a 7.5 its got on it .. will pick 1 up from the local bike shop tomoz.. also.. i only had 1 brake light switch working before hand.. could it be when the fuse was going but not quite blown??
well.. what happend was.. i washed my bike.. and after that.. the front brake light switch stopped working.. if i got water in the switch.. it wouldnt mess up the intire part of that loom would it cause i only got the brake light switch wet.. so i will only need to replace the switch ?
yeah, its shorted and the fuse has blown to stop damage, replace the switch and the fuse and it should be fine.
but i washed the bike a while ago now.. when the brake light switch went.. and the fuse has only jsut gone
its because a live somwhere is touching earth. chances are its the switch that has moisture in it or is damaged inside, i have had 2 or 3 do this. its a common problem, replace the switch as its a legal requirement and then try the new fuse, if that blows then there is another fault (best buying half a dozen fuses, they do come in handy)
