The Royal Enfield Add-On Lead – Disc Brake Switch (Part No. 1040694/A) is a genuine OEM wiring lead used for the front disc brake switch circuit—helping maintain a clean, factory-style electrical connection between the brake switch and the harness. It is typically needed during front brake switch replacement, wiring repair, or when correcting old “cut-and-join” wiring that causes intermittent brake light operation.
Unlike universal wires or local splices that can loosen, corrode, or heat up, this OEM add-on lead is designed to match the original connector style and routing expectation—reducing chances of brake-light failure (a common safety and challan risk). If your brake light works sometimes and fails sometimes when using the front brake lever, replacing the switch + correcting the connector/lead is often the correct fix path.
Official part description and MRP appear in Royal Enfield customer price-list documentation as “ADD ON LEAD, DISC BRAKE SWITCH” with MRP ₹50 (HSN 87141090).

Compatibility Table
⚠️ Compatibility is NOT confirmed enough to publish model names (to avoid wrong orders/returns).
Reason: In this research pass, multiple seller pages mention the part/description, but do not provide a verifiable model-fit list in accessible text, and the microfiche lookup page could not be reliably opened from here.

FAQs
1) What is this part used for?
It’s an OEM add-on wiring lead used in the front disc brake switch circuit, typically related to brake-light activation from the front lever.
2) Will this fix my brake light not working with front brake?
If the issue is a damaged connector/lead or tampered wiring near the switch, this part (often along with a new brake switch) can be the correct fix. Always test switch continuity first.
3) Is it compatible with my Classic/Bullet/GT/Thunderbird?
Not published as “confirmed” here. Please verify by chassis/VIN or match your existing part number/connector photo before ordering.
4) Can I use a local wire instead?
You can, but it increases risk of poor joints, corrosion, and intermittent brake-light failure. OEM lead is preferred for a reliable repair.
