Help in Portland Oregon

I'm supposed to be leaving for Alaska tomorrow and the "Brake Failure" light came on on my 2013 R1200 GSA hex head.
My riding partner is flying up and landing at PDX at 1:15. Our plan was to put our gear and head out right away and make the Canadian border by nightfall. As it turns out the low beam on his 2009 GS just burned out and that need replacing too.
Anyone in the Portland area that could help would be appreciated.

Check your ABS sensor cables, especially the front one. Make sure it isn't touching the rotor.

Just saw your reply. I had checked it and readjusted it and the light is off now. Thanks

You may want to check that the cable is worn through and wrap it in electrical tape. I had it happen to me on the way to Crescent City going up through Crater Lake. Good luck on your trip.
