Anyone get a MOCO letter about a brake light switch malfunction/replacement.

Yeah.  I read about it here first though.  Got the letter yesterday.  Had the brakelight switch replaced last friday.
Make sure and check your rear brake before you ride off.  I went once around the parking lot and right back to service alley so they could bleed the rear brake.
It was like stepping on a rotten tomato.

Just got mine yesterday.  I thought they sent them rather late after making the announcement.

the MoCo advised you of the recall so they are out of any liability - it's entirely your problem from now on if anything happens ...

Not gotten the letter, had mine replaced last Sat. When I called on the Thursday before to check if they still had some new switches, the service manager told me he could not advise that it would be safe to even ride the bike to the dealership. I said I was less than 10 miles from the dealership and since I did not own a trailer or a truck to pull it with that I would just carefully ride it over Sat. morning. So they are covering there azz's.

I think management eliminated the mail room crew back when they screwed over the folks working in the plants.  So the mail will be a little slow until the new Chinese subcontractor gets up to speed on the printing and stamp licking operation.  Please be patient.

brake switch recall
« Reply #209 on: November 20, 2011, 02:38:15 AM »

I got my rear brake light switch recall letter so I took the bike in yesterday and had it swapped out. My local dealer Simi Valley HD did the swap out in about 40 minutes while I waited. They bled the rear  brakes in the standard fashion, then they had to hook my bike up to a computer to calibrate (at least I think that is what they did) the ABS. I was standing there at the time so I  told my mechanic that I had a TTS mastertune remap, but he said don't worry  because what he was doing would have no effect on my fuel map. On the way home the bike ran fine so I guess he was right. Just throwing this out there for those of you who have not had the recall done. I asked if I could have the switch they took off, but they said they were required to keep it as per HD.CAHDBIKER
