96 Elite SR front drum brake to disk conversion - how to rewire brake light?
Posted: Wed Aug 05, 2020 8:00 pm
I am working on a front end conversion from drum brakes to disk brakes on my 1996 Elite SR.
My question- how do people make the brake light button work when making this swap?
The original brake lever unit has a little black plastic pin that when the space between the brake lever and bars is open (brake lever depressed) turns the light on. This piece pushes out somewhat, but I dont' see how other than cutting the wire I can pull it out. If I were to cut it and pull the little black button out, then how would I connect it to the new master cylinder?
