Welcome to our forum -
I'd suggest you dry the seat really good, then disconnect the negative side of the battery for a minute or so, step on the brake, then reconnect the battery terminal. Maybe that will re-set the light. humfrz |

All will be fine when it is dry. They don't use an old fashioned weight activated switch but work with a sensor that detects electrical capacitance. This means that anything wet or electronic can set it off. You could pile 100 bricks there with nothing but a plugged it cell phone or gallon of milk will activate it.

Just don't confuse it with measuring capacity. That uses buttload as the unit.

Hmm, never noticed it with just a cable only when something is plugged in causing an electrical flow.

Pressured the Attorney General not to prosecute a Canadian company for bribery charges in bidding on jobs in Libya a decade ago.

It has to be in just the right place but yes I have had just the cord doit. My favourite thing that set it off was a ham sandwich. Just one sandwich.
