The hazard

On certain motorcycles, water can enter at the main wiring harness/rear brake light switch connectors and travel to the rear brake light switch along a wire, causing corrosion of the rear brake light switch. This could cause a short circuit, melting the circuit-protection fuse and deactivating the headlamp, tail lamp, and brake light, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will install an improved brake light switch and install a water protection cover on the main wiring harness.
