It's the sketchy magnetic brake switch. Some bikes came with a weak one. I think adding in anything on the brake circuit caused it to have a flutter effect on the circuit. And it will trigger the symbol. When that icon is lit your brake lights are on constant. So the only way to reset the brake lights is to turn off the key and restart it.

Can you change the front logo to honor the reason for this forum's birth?
It did have some effect in lighting the fuse for sure.... And once my A.D.D. kicked into gear and had my O.C.D. dialed in I wasn't going to slow down for anything.....

This should be on the front.... So true!!!
@Painter that has a bit of truth in it....
HEY I GOT MY PACKAGE>>>>> they are beautiful..... I have to work in the morning for a little bit but you can bet ill be installing it tomorrow as soon as i get home..... I will definitely be showing that off in the Smokies...

You must be trying to get my sweet tune loaded in yours.......

It was worth a try........... But I am serious at least here we all feel involved and everything is done on a more personal level.
It is more personal here.... I read a lot of the post here. Its impossible to keep up and read them all... We average over 400 post a day..... However,,,,,, I will bet you a cold drink that before this year is over I will say Howdy face to face with nearly half the member base we have,.... Maybe even more.....

Like I have said before ALL the info is over here and the people that will help you with the SlingShot and answer your questio
@Zeeboo you sounded sincere . I cant tell if you were joking so ill answer your question...
What he is referring to is no-one over at the darkside uses the SEARCH button to look for the answers over there... They just keep repeating the same old questions over and over.... So basically all the new traffic they get is old old questions over and over...
But truthfully,,,, the search feature over there does suck. I hated it... Over here its in the top right and it actually has a smart feature in it..When you search over here it will actually get you some real answers....

There it is..... Thanks for posting.... It looks wonderful..
What is sad is that today I was replying to the thread about the brake light modulator and the squiggly icon appearing on the dash... And I had forgot that you did this mod and that I did it also..... We need to really fill up this tech section with this kind of stuff.. We have the talent here on the forum.... And between all of us we have fixed or described how to fix every problem someone would run into on the SS.
Thanks again... Do you care if I put some of my brake fix pics under your fix... I think I have some of the old switch that is replaced also....

Well there was some mention of another member that had created the thread... Let me see if he wants to create it here.. I think we went the same direction on the creation of the brake switch mod...
-
Hey fix that avatar and all your info so you will feel like a full fledged member..... That will give you something to do....
-
Y'all make me laugh so much I have tears in my eyes... I really do...
-
I guess when all the tech and talent oriented people left it caused a vacuum over there. Your not the first person to mention the information was a bit stale over there.
Man I just wish I could tell the others stuck over there where we are. I know that some are over there to stay. And I know that some just don't know where we are and would move immediately over if they did.
I appreciate you making it over here. Anything you need just ask.

That is pretty slick. It's amazing what you all come up with. I just talked to someone on the darkside that said there was no usefull info being tossed around over there. Between those flags flying and that little bit of darkside info it made a tear well up in my eye.

Keep you eyes open in Craigslist.... I bought that Challenger 10,000 pound lift for 400.00. They are out there....

Check out the other thread for more info.

If anyone needs me to dig up the install pictures just let me know. I'll be glad to make a thread on changing over to the mechanical switch.
-
It's so easy to install this switch. And once you do it will allow you to run just about anything on your brake light circuit.
-
Here is the fix.
-
Why am I replying in two threads??? :p
-
This is your fix

Hey I replied on the other thread. I may know why I don't get an error. I am running a real brake light switch. I tossed that crappy magnetic switch. I used to get that squiggly symbol. After I changed the magnetic junk out and installed the NAPA brake switch it never bothered me again
