Friend,
You are missing the preempt command on the second router. The preempt command will make sure the standby takes over the control when the primary is active but the priority is reduced.
If the preempt is not configured, then eventhough the priority becomes low, the standby will not take the active role as long as it is receiving hellos from the active one.
configure "standby preempt" in the second router and let us know how it goes
HTH, rate if it does

You will have to post the configs of both routers and indicate which interfaces they are connected together with . All this really tells us is you have configured hsrp on one side , need more information .

Dear Sir, sorry for being late on you, i attached to you the configuration from the 2 switches, you can see on the second switch, thats it having higher priority but its not becoming active. if i pulled the 4/48 cable physically out and then in to the port immediately, it becomes the active one !! i really appreciate your help.
