I have a 2001 R1150 GS. The brake light is activated (bright) without the hand switch or foot switch depressed. When the foot switch is depressed the tail light dims.
If I unhook the foot switch connector under the seat, hand switch works correctly.
I replaced the foot switch and the tail light tests correctly. There are no symptoms with other electronics. I have the wiring diagram.
Something is making up the foot switch connection or it is reversed (the tail light dims when the foot switch is depressed.) The only thing I have not done is trace the foot switch circuit from the connector under the seat. How does the fuse box affect this circuit? Does anyone have any advice about how to further test and correct the foot switch wiring?
