IIRC that left side (
rear)
Brake / Start
switch is the same part # as used on the NSS250 Reflex, PS250 Big Ruckus, and our (North American) NSS300 Forza.
Once Upon a Time…After discovering that I had no
brake lights I found that both
brake light switches had failed —though presumably not at the same time. I soon came to the frightful realization that, not only was there no
rear lights, but that I was also a hair’s breath away from being unable to Start my Silverwing. Fortunately I discovered that the front (right)
switch had a loose wire connection. So the “No
Brake Lights” problem was partially resolved. It seems that when
someone reconnected those
switch wires, instead of
on the terminal it was only pushed
between the wire terminal insulator and the
switch male terminal. Eventually it dislodged, and with the left side
switch having actually failed, left me without
brake lights. A new
Brake/Start
switch for the left side was put on order and in the interim I made up a jumper wire for the Start terminals of that left side
switch. The Start
switch terminals are the larger of the two sets of terminals on that tiny
switch.
And they lived happily ever after…
PS: Since then I’ve kept a spare Brake/Start switch in the bike. Just in case.
