Front brake light switch repair or replace

Post by PrinceMo »

My 1988 1400cc Suzuki Intruders has a ball and a spring in the lever thingie.

Not a seprite switch.
Brake lite wont work from the handlebar.

How do I fix it or who has one?

Thanks.

You can buy them new off eBay:

They are a fiddly setup compared to a normal switch.

Thanks that looks like it but it does not say it will fit my 1988 1400cc Intruder.

Your Intruder one may have longer wires, otherwise it is the same switch. Suzuki used the same switch on all their bikes from about 78 to 89.
