I would just check the general condition and contact cleanliness of the switches. The one on the front brake is worked by the MC plunger and switch on the underside of headset, strip the switch and clean it. The back brake means stripping the pedal out. It may require a new switch. Slacken the back...

Hi, my brake light only seems to come on when my lever is fully pulled in and when my pedal is fully pressed down.
Any ideas on how to correct this please?

Thanks.

I have an alarmed disc lock on the front, but for a few quid i can at least stop them lifting the front end and wheeling it away if the back brake is on too.

Hi all, just read about the genius hack of locking the back brake on using a padlock under the pedal.
Does anyone else do this and if so what size padlock are you using?

Big thanks,
Simon

Thanks, it's fixed. It was indeed the bulb. A bulb with two elements is a new one to me. Thanks again, this forum is great for us novices.

I didn't know that. Will get another ordered and see if that works. Thank you.

For the time being i've gone for the quick fix of permanently dipping the headlight to the fullest using the bolt underneath the light. Seems to be low enough not to be dazzling other road users.

First thinvgs I would check ; 1. Bulb 2. Bulb holder - check connections, signs of corrosion etc 3. Switch wiring Good luck So both bulbs are working. Vespa operation manual says: left switch on right handlebar... 1 (top pressed in) = Town lights 0 (switch to middle) = Lights off 2 (down pressed in...

Hi, when I click the switch down to have the headlight dipped it just goes off.
Very annoying for whoever I'm behind.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Took off both side panels, battery and holder and mud guard and got a scissor jack under the gear selector and it was a doddle. Thanks for the tips.
