Lastnight the person riding behind me noticed my brake light was continuously on. Moving the lever made no difference. Heading into the shop now to take a look, any suggestions?

I would look at the button were the brake lever hits.

The brake switch has been know to freeze on occasion. The switch is mounted to the bottom side of the brake lever pivot area.

Turns out it was the the switch under the lever. I was doing some off trail riding and went through some brush and must have pushed it out of place. Look up from under the lever you will see the switch which activates as you press the lever. It pivots on a 8mm bolt, as I moved it back and forth the light would go on and off. Find the right position and tighten the 8MM nut.
