[QUOTE="LeadHead, post: 218394, member: 367"] Hey DBA, it's been awhile! I recently got an 06 XR650L with SM wheels...absolutely love the bike after doing an FCR swap. When I put everything back together, the tail light and brake light doesn't work. I have three wires running to the tail light; green (ground), brown, and green/yellow. My tail light is probably some knock off Chinese brand LED with red, black, and yellow. These are my test light results in wired configuration 1: Brown to red - test light lit up Green/yellow to yellow - test light does not light up, however the tail light lights up when I touch the test light to it...does that indicate a bad ground? Results in wired configuration 2: Green/yellow to red - test light lit up with front brake applied, rear brake switch did not seem to work. Front switch is also pretty finicky Brown to yellow - test light lit up All tests were done with ignition on and test light hooked to ground.
