Brake light not working

[fletty]

Hey guys, a small problem i need to get resolved.

my rear brake light isnt working. The light is fine and stays on while riding, but it is not actually getting brighter when the brake is applied.

the bike is an 05 cbr600rr

cheers

First things first. Have you checked the bulbs? If it is isolated to say either the rear brake or the front brake lever, then check the appropriate switch.

maybe ur brake is being registered as "on" all the time either due to a mechanical failure (and a small amount of pressure is being applied constantly) or the electronic sensor has failed and just things its on all the time, try for a self fix and take it in if it persists

So both front and rear brakes when applied dont work?

If both front and rear dont work then it most likely to be wiring problem. Else
if front brakes turns light on when applied and rear doesnt, then you can adjust it.

There is an adjuster behind the rear set. It turns to adjust when the brake light comes on. It has a cable coming to it and a spring hooked to the bottom. This adjust the sensivitiy of your rear brakes when applied to trigger the lights.

For front brakes, i'm not sure how to adjust...
