Hello all
Just servicing my NC30, and have noticed that neither brake light works when activated. Changed the bulbs but no joy. I am going to check the switches but just thought it a bit odd that both had failed. Are the switches prone to failure by any chance?

Thanks

Ian

Both mine failed not long ago.

Front one was shitted wiring, and the rear was corroded contacts.

Take a closer look at them and you might be surprised

Easy enough to test, take switch off and bridge the contacts in the plug.

If the light comes on you have a knackered switch

Thanks, the rear switch was just gunged up, a good dose of GT85 got it moving again. The front switch was dead, tested it by bridging the switch and the lights came on!. Cheap replacement at £8.00. Bike off for MOT when the switch is fitted. Thanks for the help.
