Uuuuuum, my money is on the switch.... 😛 They tend to come loose and short on the body.

Thanx will check it tonight.

Wheres the switch located??????

Mine comes on in the morning after a while it goes off.

Same here. If you remove the boot over the hb lever it sits on the right of the lever. I did check mine and it seems fine. Stil on in the mornings tho.

So I inspected the switch, cleaned it but still same problem in the morning.
So Im gonna try flushing the brake fluid out and check again.

@Drillergy
What you fluid level like?

Its not full its inbetween full and empty. The last time I checked.

Filled the fluid = sorted no more light.

Same with me but I need to upgrade my brakes soon.

Thicker sole shoes the deeper the paddle goes the quicker you stop. 😀
