If you can hear the fuel pump prime, then your BAS is fine. How the hell does a switch just fall apart. Did you smash it with a hammer? j/k. It might have arced out and blew a fuse. Is the front fairing back on the bike? On my F4i the BAS is mounted to the headlight, and it must be plugged in, or jumped out. There's a write up on how to do that somewhere on here.

WOW! Obviousley you're ok, since you're trying to fix the bike and not an arm or leg or head for that matter. Anywhos try jumping out the BAS by pluging a wire into two of the three connectors, not sure which two but there is a write up on it, its quicker and easier than changing plugs (cheaper too). Check the fuses too. Good luck bro, and try to keep her on her wheels (at least one of em)
