Hi all i've just changed a master cylinder and the new one has a front brake light switch fitted, is it possible to wire it into my loom and if so how do i do it? It has a green and a brown wire and the loom is a DC one. Cheers for any tips or advice in advance Pete.

i ran a piece of two core black speaker wire down to the brake light swith for the rear brake and wired it in parelel

i dont use the rear brake so i thought it was important to have a brake light

Find a permanent live in the headset (prob. brown though i'm not familier with DC looms) connect one side of the switch to it. Run a new wire (pink if you care) from the new switch to either the rearlight stop lamp connection (usually pink) Or to the output side of the brake switch (usually pink)
