Intermittent fault - side stand switch
slipps35:
I have a 2017 S1000RR race bike. We replaced the front loom (where the injectors join) due to an ongoing fault this year.
I have not ran the bike since, but now if I leave it for a few minutes it will show up and engine fault for an implausible signal from the side stand switch.
I clear it, and the bike will run and start several times no problem. Then I will start it again and the bike with show up the side stand fault switch.
Any suggestions? Thanks

I had a clutch fault on my k1600 for the longest time. I traced to to the 2010-2016 (K1600GTL K48) Switch Clutch Dual Microphone Switch. Not sure why it is named a microphone as it is actually just two mini micro switches that were glued together. Of course BMW wanted $178 for the stupid thing. I found the mini-micro switchs on alibaba for .69 cents each. I glued them together and swapped out the bad switches located under the clutch handle. Been working great for over two years now. Somewhere on this I posted the part numbers. I would suspect the kickstand has the same switch. Try to get the waterproof microswitch.

The clutch switch is just a simple $2 mini-micro switch. https://www.shopbmwmotorcycles.com/oem-parts/bmw-motorrad-dual-microphone-switch-61317690700?c=az0x The side stand would be very similar. You can buy them on ebay or alibaba for $2 ish.

here is the part number I used for my clutch switches: 5PCS CHERRY ZF micro switch DB2 DB2C-A1AA -A1LA -A1RB DC2 DC2C-A1AA -A1LA -A1RB -A1LC 10A 250V NEW and ORIGINAL Keep in mind they do not have the fancy BMW connector. I just cut the bmw wires at the bad switch and soldered these switches in place. Been working great for several months now. They do have a water proof version but I can not remember the part number. So far I have rode in rain and no issues. https://www.aliexpress.us/item/2251832782994985.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.5.5a181802iu5TJ8&gatewayAdapt=glo2usa4itemAdapt&_randl_shipto=US
