    The diode block is likely fried. It's a small black box under the seat near the main harness. Your switches test good, but the diode fails and tells the bike the stand is down even when it's up. Bypassing the connector proves it. Find that diode block, unplug it, and bridge the correct two wires in its connector. If it runs then, you need a new diode pack. Common Triumph gremlin.
