    Evening all.
    MOT in the morning so going over my Speed Triple (2012) and have noticed that the pass button on the left switchgear does nothing. I know it's supposed to flash my high beams but it does not. Both high beams come on if I flip the high/low switch.
    I've checked the fuses and opened the switchgear and it all looks in good condition. No corrosion at all. I sprayed some contact cleaner into the switchgear nonetheless buy still the button does nothing.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    Check your relay it may be gone or just stuck.

    Thanks for the fast reply Joe.
    Do you happen to know which relay it is and/or where it is located. I can't seem to see the difference in the parts fiche.

    I am not sure on it. When I see my Boy I will ask him. I will also see if he has any bits lying around. I am also sure one of the peeps will be along soon. Must be having their meds just now.
    Regards
    Joe.

    Thanks for the replies guys. It seems the contact cleaner has worked overnight as the switch is now working. Magic. ....

    Your question prompted me to have a look at the mot regs and I can’t see that it is a tested item, you live and learn. Glad it’s working for you, things like that are just annoying.
