Side stand switch bypass

cmd

I'm rebuilding a 888 from boxes and have spare wires which I guess should be part of the side stand interlock circuit. I'd like to just bypass that and the clutch switch. I have a green and yellow and 2 blue wires under the seat which somehow need to be connected via the neutral light switch, I think. Any hints welcome.

Also does this circuit cut the fuel pump as switching the ignition on does t run the pump as I would expect.

it's only a light. no interlock.

Thanks - was over complicating things. Trouble is I would expect if i earth the yellow/green wire then the neutral light should come on - but it doesn't. If I apply a positive feed to the yellow/green the light does come on suggesting that bit is working. From the wiring diagram it looks as if the neutral light and charging light get power from the regulator/rectifier. While this seems correct for the charging light it seems odd for the neutral light to be connected like that. My wiring diagram is terrible though so i may be getting confused.

Does the yellow/green under the seat just use a patch cable then to reach to the neutral switch? If so any idea what the 2 joined together blue wires are for - they are live.

IME even when set up correctly the side stand light would flash like Xmas tree lights over bumpy surfaces and wasn't reliable.
I solved this by disconnecting the little Bastard, It never told any lies ever again. 😉

I took the entire switch out. The bike is actually lighter without it !!
