Can the side stand kill switch be defeated?

0

The circuit looks simple. Power from the ignition switch, through the kill switch (closed= go), through the side stand switch (closed= go) to the fuel pump relay then to the motronic unit. The motronic unit seems to back feed about 1.5 volts down the line to the relay when the ignition is on and the switch is open and/or as the unit shuts down. This needs to be overcome by the power coming the other way to get the relay to close and give you the fuel pump function if you close the stand switch after ignition on. If your side stand switch or side stand switch bypass wire is not perfect (mine had water in the connector) this is taken as sidestand down, so the bike won’t run.
