L.A.B. said:gortnipper said:There is an additional brown bulleted wire from the rear leaving the harness under the tank. When connected at the junction with the other brown wires (from front and rear switches), the brake light is illuminated even though the brakes are not engaged. When disconnected the brake light functions normally.
Curious as to what this additional brown wire is actually for?
If you are absolutely sure it's a plain brown (and not a brown with a dark tracer) then I have no idea as the only plain brown should be the brake light switches to stop lamp wires as far as I know. :?
As the brake light appears to function normally without it then I suggest you leave it disconnected, at least for the time being.
That is the plan.
There is no tracer that I could see on it, which is why I just hooked it up in the first place. I checked it again last night when I disconnected it. Maybe it is supposed to have one and was constructed incorrectly. Time will tell, I guess.
