I attached the the black lead to the negative terminal, and the red lead to point 1 on the ECU plug, as in the picture:

The reading was 1005...no change when stand down.

reading shows resistance of the diode while it is directly polarized ... I don't know what type of multimeter you are using but if you have ability to check diodes with it, you should do that ... when directly polarized (red lead to the pin 1 one the ECU and black lead to the blue/green wire of the sidestand switch connector) multimeter reading is around 0.7V and when reverse polarized (swap red and black leads) reading is infinity ... try to do that ...

this diode may also cause the problem

Again black lead to negative terminal, red lead to black wire on clip...

The reading was 00.3 - no change with stand down. I tried it again at one point and the reading on the meter went a little do lalee. Removed leads tried again got the same 00.3 reading.

this reading is OK ... the resistance should be around 0 with stand down or up ...
