Hi there guys, this may, or may not, have been asked before but here goes: 2019 Slim has a sticking front brake light switch. I only noticed it because the cruise control refused to engage. I have a feeling that the switch itself is probably ok as I can pull the brake on and then allow the lever to "flick" forward and the light will go out. So, I'm thinking that it might be the piston that's sticking.I know this was common on older machines but I've not come across this on an M8.
Have the grips been changed,? As there is a micro switch up at front brake lever on bars, that if not treated carefully it can also stop the brake light from working via front lever. So in thinking that, it might be sticking or caught on something causing it to keep brake light on.
No, standard grips, nothing changed at all. It's so frustrating, this only happened after it had been into the dealer for it's annual service. The weather is pretty bad here at the moment which will give me an excuse to spend a bit of time to strip the lever assembly and see if there's anything sticking. I'm thinking it might be the master cylinder piston that's sticking and not returning to push the lever back out. We shall see!
