(you'll have to figure out which one makes your brake light brighter than your tail light) (Hint... there's only two options)... ...

Then make sure you have power through the wire.Make sure you got a power wire. The front lever issue.Make sure your plugged in at the master cylinder.Did it work before the custom light?
