My Honda Shadow's brake light is not coming on when the front brake is
applied. Works great with the rear brake. Any ideas??
TIA

The front brake light switch is often exposed to moisture when you wash
the bike or it sits out in the rain. Some brake light switches have a
sliding copper plated contact that gets corrodes or gets grease all
over the contacts. Check it out, maybe you can just clean the
contacts...
