wisdomwrx Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 Hi, I have an 80 brat gl and I need to install a new light switch and speedo cable if someone could kind of give me an idea to do both of them. I have no idea how to get the light switch out. The speedo cable I have somewhat of an idea on how to install it. Thanks Ryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wisdomwrx Posted August 31, 2010 Author Share Posted August 31, 2010 Ok, so I looked at it and the speedo cable i think that I can just put it through it's rubber outer tube and just wait for it to show up at the other end. But the light switch I have no idea how to get out so I can replace it. Ryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wisdomwrx Posted September 12, 2010 Author Share Posted September 12, 2010 Can anyone explain to me how to replace the light switch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDisorder Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 An '80 Brat techinically belongs in the Historic Section - you might get better response there. I've never worked on a first gen headlight switch so I'm no help. GD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leeroy Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 If you look at the bottom of the pull knob on the light switch you will see a small grub screw. Remove the grub screw and knob. Then you will see a round retaining piece (not sure what to call it!) with two holes which allows you to unscrew it. Once this piece is removed you can then remove the switch from behind the dashboard and unplug the wire harness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
