Wondering if I put it back together wrong? Lights and dash lights come on. Next setting has dash lights on parking lights off. Then Final setting has dash lights off, parking lights on.

The switch was dirty and cleaning the switch made a difference in how the bike was running.

That's a tough one.
If it were me, I'd get a wiring diagram and try to sort out the contacts.

Got a used switch on the way. Hopefully figure it out when it gets here.

Just got a used ignition, key, keypad, and the wire all the way under the gas tank. Ill try a replacement of all first, then if it doesn't work I'll take it apart by pieces.

Installed switch and keypad now everthing is doing good - except it now takes different keys to open the gas tank vs the ignition. If I could do it all over again, I wouldn't have tried hard to get the white cap on the bottom off without breaking it.
