Tail light

[Ruheel]

Hey guys, my tail brake light works but not my tail light. I wanted to change the bulb myself (might be the culprit) but I dont know how to access it. It’s a 2010 GT250R EFI model. Cheers

Remove the rear seat & you access it through there

I can see the wire to the tail bulb but cant get it out, seems like it’s jammed inside. Do I just pull harder? Cheers

[Simon]

If I remember rightly you have to turn it

Is it a “single bulb”  or  do you have LED OEM Rear light ?
(Korea changed lights in 2009-2012 onwards for GT bikes to have factory red LED’s at the back.

If it is a bulb type  (older shape model Hyosung) = You can try what Simon said!   (use a little bit of contact cleaner around the bulb and socket to free it off a little bit and be gentle.

The brake light is still working. Do you reckon I should check the wires and fuses first?

If you see red lights = the unit is working ,    it could be your RELAY because newer generation Hyosungs uses RELAYS to control the front and rear lights
(Click this link to see it)

You will find this relay located on the LEFT REAR COVER of the pillion seat.

Maybe clean the contacts and check wires ?  If nothing,  it could be the relay or there is a “break” in the wire along somewhere at the back that is stopping the voltage signal going to the Red LED’s at the back.

The “Brakes” will trigger the LED,  independently.   The brakes use their own switch attached to the master cylinders.

Thnks for the help, it was just a wiring issue
