    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

As soon as I get one problem with my gs1000 sorted another pops up :cry: .
Now the brake light is on all the time ive put a new switch on the front cos it was worn out and ive taken the rear brake switch off and cleaned it and it seems fine to me but the brake light still stays on all the time.
Anyone got an idea where to look ?
The battery is not good due to lack of use but im getting a new one tommorow would that be any thing to do with the problem ?

first isolate the problem, try unplugging each brake light switch one by one, until the brake light turns off, if it's the front, you'll have to loosen the two screws on the switch and shift the plastic cover around until the light activates with a little pressure on the lever.
 
Re: Very Strange ?????

Eithe one, or both of your brake light switches are out of adjustment. Disconnect the front brake light switch (connectors are usually in the headlight bucket) If the brakelight then goes off, it is the front switch that is out of adjustment. If it does not, then it is the rear. If you then get the rear adjusted correctly and the brake light comes back on whenn you reconnect the front, then the front was/is also incorrectly adjusted.
The connectors for the rear brakelight can be at either the rear brakelight switch/pigtail or at the tail cone behind the tailight.
