Re: Hi and help

Sorry for the delay if I remove the 2 little wires from the front hand brake lever. The back light works like it should.
Swapped the wires around still same problem. Think the switch in the control may be broken

Cct advise

Hey guys I recently bought a firestorm. Didn't know about how bad the cct are supposed to be.
My question is is there anyway to tell if they have been swapped out by just looking or do I have to get the spanners out.

Re: Hi and help

Thanks Chris
I already had it out yes the thicker filament lights up.
I Thought it was like the brake switch was on.
