My XB12S Failed inspection because the rear break leaver when pressed would not light up the rear break light apparently I was not pressing hard enough. I went home and pressed hard on the leaver and it lit up. The front break leaver is fine. Is there a way to adjust the sensitivity of the switch that lights up the break light when you press the rear break leaver?

Sounds like you either have an air bubble in the line or a failing switch. The switch is pressure activated. I suggest bleeding the system and trying again. If not then tell them to press hard because the back break has a really low ratio between the two pistons so it was designed to be stomped on to make it work.
