Default Need Help, Brake Light

I have a brake light problem. When I turn the ignition on, my brake light comes on and stays on. Pressing rear brake lever or front brake lever doesn't change it. What's causing this?????

maybe one of your brake light triggering switches are stuck?

well the only one I actually looked at is the one on the foot control because I don't have that one on my bike.

its the thing with the spring on it on the foot control.

The censor for the foot brake is conected to the rear brake lever, via a spring. You can unthread ie. loosten it and the brake light will go back off. Loosten it enough that the light doesn't chatter when you go over bumps or rough roads and you're set.

Easy Breezy.
