Task #05 - Brake Light Switch

Service Interval and Recommended Maintenance Manual
Check the brake light switch operation and adjustment
by applying the brakes with the ignition turned on.
Operation of either the front brake lever or the rear
brake pedal should illuminate the rear brake light.
Note: The front brake light switch is incorporated into
the handlebar lever assy and is not adjustable. If the
switch fails to operate, then you will have to find the
fault and/or replace the switch assembly.
The rear brake switch is adjustable. Proper adjustment of
the switch will have the light coming on just before the
brakes actually engage. Before adjusting this switch,
make sure you have your rear brake pedal height and
free play properly adjusted in accordance with the
instructions.
To adjust the rear brake switch, grasp the switch body
firmly and turn just the adjustment nut. Make sure you
do not allow the switch body itself to turn as the wires
inside can break off. After you have made the
adjustment, double check that it operates properly.
