Side stand sensor fault? Alarm Service

At a cafe stop after a rideout today, my bike is showing Alarm Service error as soon as i raise the side stand, and the side stand icon is flashing. This happens whether the engine is running or not. If the engine is running, it cuts out as soon as you put it in gear.
To me this sounds like a side stand switch fault, but it's not that simple. on the V100 it's not a microswitch, it seems to be a rotating hall effect sensor. I couldn't manage to unplug it, not sure if it is a plug on the sensor or a moulded on connector. As I was unable to defeat it, the bike had to be recovered home on a trailer. I'll phone the dealer tomorrow and see if they can collect, or if I have to use the Guzzi recovery service to get the bike to them.
Has anyone else had this problem, if so, what was the fix please?
