Check your brake light switch. Not sure where it is on a 2019 but on my 2020 it is directly under the brake pedal. Mine failed at around 9000 miles. Same symptoms as yours is showing.

Thank you. I’ll look for a video on how to check that brake switch.

Mine was mud and gunk packed in the brake pedal switch. Same description.

Thanks for the tip.

Can someone direct me to a video that shows replacing the brake light switch on my 2019 RT Limited?

I decided to tow the trike to the dealer and have them replace the brake switch under extended warranty. One week later they said they will order a brake switch and a rivot that holds it on. That will take another week. Wish the dealers stocked more parts.
