Side stand cut out in neutral?

I recently tried wiring a neutral light in off the loom using an led with a built in resistor and it worked fine but then as I was working on other parts I snapped the leg of the led and I think it either shorted or kept sparking or something and now that doesn't work and my bike stalls if I put the side stand down even in neutral. Did I blow some fuse somewhere?

have you removed the parts you spliced in and tried?

Yes in the end i gave up with them and made sure everything was insulated with tape and everything. Its the way the line just seemed to stop working that confused me!

[andrewsmith]

have you looked at the switch on the stand.

They can stick in a position due to being blasted with road sh*te

Well that switch operates fine. It cuts the engine out, yet it never used to do so when the bike was in neutral.
Thats my issue.

It means I cant let the bike warm up whilst putting on my gear. Also when I come or go I have to open the door before I start to warm the bike up not a huge nuisance but when I get back I have to turn off the bike (as I have to sit the bike on the stand) to open my garage door, but it is sloped up into my garage so I drive the bike back in meaning I have to start the bike again and then stop it again I'd rather not have to do that to my battery/bike if I don't have to.
