Newbee Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 Hi there, this forums been a bit more active than normal. I have a problem with my brake light switck, I've replaced the bulbs no luck there and the lights only work when i press had on the peddle or work it a few times. I have located the switch, it looked like it was threaded but would not unscew. A search took me to the Picaso forum where it was mentioned it was a stud bolt thing or ratchet type, what I could gather is you push it or pull it to remove or adjust it. Before I annoy my neck to get to this (I think I'll buy a new) and try and replace is there anyone with any advice on this, looks like these switches need replaced quite often. Thanks in advance.

techbod Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 yes twist one way or the other to 90 degrees this will release the switch.http://i469.photobucket.com/albums/rr53/techbod/3141l01a.jpg look at number 5 and where it slots into you should see how they lock in Quote
