    What year and model bike do you have?
    We've seen a fair number of reports of the brakelight switch going "toes-up" on these bikes.
    (I had one fail on my 2010 RT... )

    Good luck!

    Default Sounds like..!!

    Connections. If the switch were the problem both brake light would be on or flickering. If its driving lights then you would have faulty bulbs or connections..also check fuses and relays...

    Thanks!
    I've gotten used to looking for a description of the bike in the signature line of the posts...
    I get scared when it's absent.

    Since this is a warranty item; consult your dealer for a replacement of that switch.
