Side Light / Brake Light
« on: 30 April 2012, 04:47:00 pm »
Quick question, should the front side lights come on with the brake lights?

Perhaps a poor earth on the rear light cluster and the brake light comes on by picking up an earth through the side lamp circuit causing the front lights to glow? Just a thought.

Have you had a blown bulb changed recently, if someone has fitted a single filament bulb to a twin filament holder the sides will get a live feed when the brake is applied, seen this on many cages. HTH.

If you worried about falling off your bike, you'd never get on.

That will be a NO then, cool, will start the investigation and first on the list is to check the rear bulb, thanks all.
