One thing I notice is back light stays on, and is hot to the touch, squeezing brakes makes no differences, getting new bulb tomorrow, just to make sure bulb good.

I've seen sockets that were not made quite right and you could insert the bulb and it would go right in,,,like normal and when the running lite was on it actually was the brake filament that was on constantly,,,and you had to really look to see that when you hit the brakes the running lite came on ,,,just an observation

Hey cyborg, bulb is in right, bought a new one to try, made no difference, the bottom filament is staying on, maybe a short somewsy?, checking brake switches up front

Could be a bad switch but then if both switches don't do it the bike wouldn't start because they complete the circuit for the solenoid to fire the starter,,,so it may just be a bad wire or connection to the socket

Had battery test, needs replaced. Took face off again, both brake switches are working, did find a break in back light wire, fix with electric tape, but still staying on, checking back light wires again.

Found it, pulled the other connector out of the back light, it too had a crack, repair with liquid tape, I think JR told me to buy this, good stuff, brakes working now, now I got to put it back together😣
