Front brake switch
« on: August 25, 2018, 20:42:30 »
I had my v-strom mot yesterday and he noticed my front brake switch wasn't working but the rear one was working fine, just wanted to know what sort of job it is to fit a new one ?

Easy .., just look under your front brake master cylinder you will see a black plastic switch held on with one small cross head screw.
Unscrew it , pull your brake lever in a little then pull it down , there will be two wires attached , pull them off then reassemble using your new switch.
Chief trouble maker 🙂
