EVERY TIME THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED THE GEAR INDICATOR STARTS BLINKING AND THE THE MACHINE WILL NOT SHIFT WITH THE ELECTRIC BUTTONS

wow, that's a wierd one.....

try this- have the battery load tested, and if possible (probably a dealer thing) check the alternator output. Perhaps when the machine is driving (no brakes applied) the battery is supplying just enough power to the ECU for the shifting, that everything works properly, but then when you apply the brakes, due to the extra load by the bulbs being lit up, the battery/alternator can supply enough voltage for the ECU so it starts acting up?? Just a shot in the dark, otherwise check fuses, etc. maybe also you have a wiring short or a ground connection issue, and the power is feeding into another circuit. Do the brake lamps light up properly when you apply the brakes??

Checked all fuses to be good. Just so I could ride that day, I unpluged all three brake switches, but before I did this the brake light was working like it should. Had no problems after unpluging the switches, just no brake light, which is no big deal but I would like for it to work properly.
