@@JonnyLeeguitarist well it did not work , i cleaned it with brake cleaner so not The one you used. Will try one more time 🤟
@rollotomassi8251 hopefully it will work next time mate
@@rollotomassi8251have a go at spraying the side stand switch with a lubricant too. I've just done both and it now works
@@nathan300689 thanks for The tip!
Great information
Thanks buddy
I have been doing the change down from second and roll a few feet trick for ages to get it to work i might try this.
Barry Parker let me know how you get on and thanks for watching.
Hi. Cleaning help for little time. Best thing is hit that middle copper tap carefully wider when you push that plastic down and then there is no more loose gap. Connectors can touch better again. No need to buy new switch. Be carefully when you hit that copper tap!
Great tip!
Great vid, was having same problem with the neutral light, tried to clean it as well still not working, replaced the switch still nothing, checked wire harness connection behind instrument cluster and saw that it was coming loose probably do to vibration, reattached it and all is well. Just an FYI if cleaning does nothing check the connection next before buying new switch and save some $. I wish I would have!
Yeah when they get too far gone , you’ve gotta replace it .. thanks for watching.
Cheers Steve 🥃 your feedback save some £££ I had exactly the same issue .
HI Jonny Lee :)
Thank you very much for this tutorial!.. It has put my mind at ease knowing that this is a common fault.
I have only had the bike 3 weeks and this neutral light problem popped up.
At least I know it's not a big job.
Thanks, John from Sunny Donny :)
Hi mate , no problem at all , let me know how it works for you. Thanks for watching I appreciate it.
I just bought one of these bikes. This video was part of my pre-purchase research. The Bandit is a nice bike, in general. The position of that switch, being so close to the chain, is a design flaw.
Thanks top info
No problem 👍
Did mine last year on my 1250 and it's been fine since. My mates wants his doing now. Yes it's a common fault.
Just did my mates, 15/20 min job.
Suzuki should have put the switch on the other side on the engine, get it away from the chain oil and associated fluids.
As soon as i put my kickstand out my neutral light comes on and stays on if i put my stand away until i switch off the electrics… any idea on cause?
Probably check the kickstand switch . It’s a small piece of plastic that pushes in when the stand is up . Spray it with WD40 to see if it releases , they can get full of dirt aswell .
Hi,make a video of how the arcs are attached.
Привет, покажи как и где крепятся дуги.

Greeting! It also has a problem with the neutral indicator. I disassembled the indicator and cleaned it. It worked for a moment, however, I see oil leaking in that part. I assume that this is not normal and by the time the oil gets between the electrical contacts, it stops working. Can you help? Thank you in advance and best regards from Croatia.

You will have to replace the switch , the seal sounds like it’s failed .
Just so there is no misunderstanding. When the indicator is mounted, there is no oil leakage, however, I can see that the contacts from the indicator are bathed in oil. It's normal?

No , there shouldn’t be oil there . Something is definitely leaking .
need more videos about bandit 1250 my friend
Yeah I should do a ride vlog soon, bit more twisties fun maybe . Thanks for watching, i appreciate it.
@@JonnyLeeguitarist your bandit 1250 video is the best in CZcams need more informative videos and services and basic maintenance and best ways to ride bandit and best ways to get more kmpg and fun . Thanks for your respond, I appreciate it.
I'm looking at buying a 1250S and currently doing a marathon of videos on the bike.
Get one and i promise you’ll love it .
Is the switch located the same place on the mk2 1200 bandit?
Same side yes .
@@JonnyLeeguitaristit's way easier on the 1200....no cover to remove, it's in plain sight near the slave cylinder.....one 4mm Allen head bolt and it's just a hall sensor ...clean it up and reinstall it....20sec job, just did my 05 yesterday.
@kinderutz nice one .
Did not work at the first try. I had to scratch of dirt from the contacts, and now it works sometimes.
Yeah the build up can be bad in extreme cases, if it doesn’t work after this , then a new switch is in order .
what about using dielectric grease as a barrier, this is the correct way to apply the stuff

Cheers 👌
No problem
Didn't work for me but a new part did. The switch was just too old or worn out!
That’s a shame mate .
@@JonnyLeeguitarist I did try though.
Cleaning this fucking sensor help many times just for a moment and later that same sytuation.... Dont work
