1994 m900 front brake switch
Hi all
Noticed today the brake light doesn't come on when applying the front brake (rear is fine) When i press lever a quiet 'click' can be heard. All fuses and wiring looks to be ok (but will have a closer look over the weekend). I am assuming the micro switch has gone. If so, where can i source a replacement? Cheers all |

I had a problem with the micro switch this year... One of the bolts had come off and dirt had worked its way behind the switch...
Cleaned and re attached fixed it.... Worth a try |

Maplins do one for a couple of quid that fits, if you search for miniature micro switch there are a couple on there

Have taken the switch off and tested it with a battery and bulb - worked fine.
Will have a closer look at connectors and wiring at the weekend. |

Is this the type that has a small plastic piece between switch and lever?
I know Ducati used these on various models and it's a common thing to lose the piece as it's very small and falls out easily if you take the lever or switch off. Shown here (the small cylindrical piece);
