SOURCE: 00 CBR F4 brake lights dont come on when applied

Have you tried powering the brak circuit itself at bulb. If it comes on then you need to find broken wire between light and switches. Since neither work if you can trace to where they meet break should be behind that.

SOURCE: sometimes when i apply the front brake i feel a

Well the front brakes aren't good if they squeal as squeling alone is going to raise my eye to somethings wrong. Good breakes don't squeal. Thumping like you say may be the rotors may be out of round as the brake that squeals is'nt returning all the way when it's not being applied making it get too hot ruiening the brake pads boiling the brake pads and warping the rotors. Motorcycle rotors don't urn well ( machine at parts store ) and the service is'nt recomened as the saftty of the rider is put in jeporty.. You don't need to crash because you bikes not up to good. *** rotrs can be bought on the internet and catalog suppliers as the aftermarket sells these popular bike parts. The dealer parts are only a little better and they will cost plenty. If in dought have a pro do it. The life you may save may be your own,

Signal lights don't work properly when brake is applied

The power flow for the brake lights goes like this: Fuse ->Brake switch -> Turn signal switch -> Rear lights. The only difference is, if you have a 3rd brake light in your rear window, that gets its power directly from the brake switch. It does not go thru the signal switch first. So, if you are having a brake light problem, and your fuses are good, check the 3rd light in the rear window, if it lights up (assuming the bulbs are good, noone ever changes them), then the problem is most likely in the switch, hope this helps!

Look under the dash, on the brake pedal arm. There are one or two switches that activate brake lights and/or shift unlock. Check for loose mounting nut or a missing rubber nubber. Is the brake pedal coming all the way back up? Look on the floor for something not usually found there. These switches are adjustable and it may be as simple as adjusting them. Have a helper look for brake lights on and shift lever unlocked while you push and release the switches with your finger. Depress the brake pedal to get it out of the way. Remember to set the park brake first. Could just be a bad switch or loose connector. Check fuses and the bulbs. Is shifter fully in Park?

All this stuff runs thru the multi-function stalk. (the turn signal lever) It could be worn out.

Brake lights won't light up when brake is applied but all other lights work

Without more to go on, I can only suggest that you check out the brake light switch. It will be a mechanical switch located either on, or directly behind the lever of the brake peddle assembly. Basically, the brake peddle is pushed and the lever moves. This will cause the lever to activate the switch, turning on the brake lights. There may also be a brake light fuse. It would be located in the fuse panel, and should be labeled. But, as I said, without specific year and model info that's about as useful as I can be. You can try Google images entering your year, model, and the phrase "fuse panel" to see a picture of your fuse panel. Good luck! I hope this was of some help. Dano

I parked the car and switched off the lights engine etc. but the rear lights only remain on. How do I get them to switch off?

its hard to tell, but it sounds like maybe your brake light switch is messing up, try hitting the brakes a few times, or get under the dash and manually manipulate/ unplug the switch, this should let you know if its the switch or a more serious problem. hope this helped.
