Best choice!  Resistors are so cheap.

I know its a stupid question for who understands better eletricity... But can I use a multimeter with the 3 wires to check wich one is the ground, the positive 5v and the signal without harming the mbb right? Then I connect the signal with the ground with the resistor, right?

A digital meter is perfectly safe to use to test this, an analog may not be.  And of course, don't use the amp/milliamp mode, which is basically a short circuit.  You can use any voltage and resistance modes.

first post here , reading for long time.
I have a DS2015 with 45k Km in Germany.
Few weeks ago i had also issue with sometimes bad kickstand switch. I work as EE and often trouble shoot bad electronic.
So just opened the potting and found the bad soldered HAL Sensor.
I resoldered and potted the sensor and it is working again.
Also i drawed a schematic of the sensor.
Here it can be seen that the Hal sensor pulls the pink wire to GND with 2K2
I checked it also and the bike worked with only 2K2 Resistor between pink and black.
But safety first, you should not be able to drive with kickstand down

Also i drawed a schematic of the sensor.

Thanks for the pictures and info. Is the W60 **** the part number for the hall sensor? I can't make out the other numbers.

the unreadable numbers are the Datecode
i would expect it is this sensor.

2.2k and 2.4k resistors works perfectly.. using the bike for 2 days already with no issues.

Mines playing up as well but I noticed the bike won't charge with the sidestand up so bypassing itay become a problem?

I used the KTM bypass mentioned here on my 2015 DS with success: https://zeromanual.com/wiki/Kickstand_Switch

Had no problem charging with the bypass switch installed.
