The torch will either come on or it won't.
If it lights up the problem is with the tailcap, switch or how it connects - if it doesn't light up the problem is most likely at the other end.
TY Unknown Cyclist...
I did what you suggested and the torch lit up. Now knowing the issue was in the tail I again began to move and stretch the spring and it worked.
I am though concerned that the future is not good for that tail. Do you know if I can order a replacement tail for that light?
That would also give me a good excuse to pick up a few extra batteries and that red tail light. Although, I would rather wait til is becomes a flashing tail light.
I appreciate you taking the time to help me on this issue.
