Noble Dave Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Could be the Loom may have a split in it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justarn Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Most likely a break in the wire around the headstock where it's constantly bending.... Clean the switch plug out first with some contact cleaner tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick B Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Put a multimeter across it see if theres a supply Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Motorcycle_User7 Posted July 9, 2019 Author Share Posted July 9, 2019 Thanks for the response, I've been told to also try making the two connectors to the brake switch make contact, if the light comes on it may just be that I am unlucky enough to have a faulty new switch! Otherwise will need to reluctantly chase the loom =( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Motorcycle_User7 Posted July 14, 2019 Author Share Posted July 14, 2019 Hey...so found the issue!Basically there is a multi lead plug behind the headlight that connects to the main wiring harness, one pin was completely loose. So just repaired it viola! Glad it was not something worse! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
