Side stand switch does nothing

[unfazed]

At the risk of confusing him more can I throw my tuppence worth in? :lol I think this is right but tell me if I’m wrong. There should be 9 black wires but he only needs to identify four of them to make the bike run? He needs the ground from the side stand, and that joins back to the Ignitor. And he needs the ground when the starter switch is pressed, and that joins to the cut-off relay. That’s all he needs. 
With a continuity test. If he turns the ignition ON, he puts one probe of his meter in the side stand Blue/Yellow, then touches the other probe off each loose black wire. When the meter beeps turn the ignition off, if the beeping stops when the ignition is off that loose black wire is the switched ground from the side stand. If the beeping continues it’s the permanent ground so repeat the test until you find the black wire where the beeping stops when you turn the ignition off.

That side stand ground connects to a black wire in the 8 pin connector going to the Ignitor, so if he takes the 8 pin connector out of the Ignitor, touches a test probe to the pin with the black wire, touches the other test probe to the loose black wires, when the meter beeps that’s the wire going to the Ignitor. He should join the two loose black wires that he just identified together (side stand ground and black going to Ignitor).

The other two wires that he needs to join together are the ground from the starter switch and a black wire going to the cut-off relay. If he connects a probe to the blue/white wire coming from the starter switch and connects the other probe to the loose black wires one loose black wire should beep. That’s the switched ground from the starter switch.

Next connect a test probe to the black wire at the cut –off relay and the other probe to the loose black wires, one of them should beep. Join the two loose black wires that you identified together. (Ground from the starter switch and the black wire going to the cut-off relay)

That should be all he needs to join. The rest don't effect the bike starting or running. (I think :lol )
I was looking at the wiring diagram in that manual http://foc-u.co.uk/index.php?action=down...iew;down=4

Yes and no, You are correct in saying only 4 wires are used by the alarm imobiliser section. however we only need to find two wires, since starter operates there is no need to worry about it which rules out 2 of the 4..
The pair of wires we need are the the pair connected for the Ignitor earth.
Unfortunately the Ignitor has 2 earths one permanent and one via the side stand.
The issue really is that the wire from the sidestand switch goes through the Ignition switch and from there back to the Ignitor as a black wire. (via the loop plug which in this case has been removed)
This make is more difficult if someone is not to familiar with using a meter as they risk the possibility of damaging the ignitor.
Hence the reason for asking to check for the earths with a voltmeter.The other problem is the earth wires and the Yamaha loom alarm wires are the same colour. Black with a yellowish dot at intervals
