Regarding diagnostics and switch testing.....(credit member gv550)
To enter diag and check for codes:

Press and hold TCS and RESET again until 1/14 appears
Press TCS until 61/xx appears. xx is the fault code, if there is more

Press TCS until 62/xx appears. xx is the number of stored codes. To
clear all codes flip kill switch to RUN then STOP
Turn key OFF to exit diagnostics
To test switches:
Go into diagnostics again and toggle (TCS) up to step 20/xx. xx should
be OFF, shift to neutral and xx should be ON. Shift back to 1st.
Go to step 80/xx, xx should be OFF, press RES+ and xx should be ON.
Go to step 81/xx, xx should be OFF, press SET- and xx should be ON.
Go to step 82/xx, xx should be OFF, pull the front brake lever and xx

Stay on step 82/xx, xx should be OFF, pull the clutch lever and xx
