Hi guys I took my bike down to the dealer today to get the abs brake bleed and the computer flashed mind you I didn't have any abs light coming up on the dash only when I first turned the key on like they all do and I was getting this done as I have changed my brake set up and I was having trouble bleeding the rear brakes. So they try and do the flash then they come out and tell me its coming up with abs codes C1216 G3 Output open, C1095 G2 Output open, C1094 Front brake switch stuck, C1214 Rear Brake Switch Always On and now the abs light is always on I have no left indicator but it will work when the alarm arms it self and since I've got home I have no head light and no brake light! any idea's as I'm really pissed now. And I do have LEDs all round and led brake and tail light.

I'm not sure I understand what happened. Are you saying you went to a dealer for a Digital Technician ABS brake bleed and you left with several ABS DTCs still active? If so, why did you leave the dealer before he fixed the ABS problems?

Concerning the DTCs you listed:
C1094 = front brake switch always on and usually means the front brake was applied while the bike was accelerating but could be due to a bad front brake switch or a short to voltage in the front brake circuit.
C1095 = front brake switch open and usually means the front brake switch is disconnected or damaged. It can also be due to a bad diode pack, open tail light circuit, bad rear brake wiring, or a damaged ABS ECU.
C1214 = rear brake switch always on and usually means the rear brake was applied while the bike was accelerating but could be due to a bad rear brake switch or a short to voltage in the rear brake circuit.
C1216 = rear brake switch open and usually means the rear brake switch is disconnected or damaged. It can also be due to a bad diode pack, open tail light circuit, bad rear brake wiring, or a damaged ABS ECU.​
None of these DTCs will disable the ABS system or set the ABS light to turn on. You must have other DTCs set that you haven't listed. I would first read and clear all the DTCs (this is a link to how to read and clear DTCs) and then see which ones return and post them here for additional help.

I'm guessing you have a blown LIGHTS fuse and that's why your headlight and tail light aren't working.

Hi Steve the reason I left is they ran out of time to finish it and at that time they only thought they had codes and the abs light up I didn't know about all the lights not working till I was riding it home so it is booked in to go back down to them tonight and as for a blown fuse all have been check and none are blown this the thing that gets me as all this stuff only started happening as soon as the plugged the scan tool in and as for other codes I have the print out from them and that is it but the other funny thing is when I check for codes on the speedo it doesn't come up with any the only thing that is weird is when I run through them and I get to the last one to check it doesn't come up saying none like all the other three it is just blank!

A shop should never send someone out on a bike that isn't functioning properly.

If you can't read codes there's something wrong with either the IM or ABS ECU so make sure that these are checked to see if any damage was done.

If your head light and tail light aren't working and the LIGHTS fuse is good there's something wrong with the LIGHTS circuit (the blue wire that's fed by the LIGHTS fuse).

If your brake light doesn't work there's something wrong with the ACCY fuse or the ACCY circuit (the O/W = orange with white stripe wire that's fed by the ACCY fuse). This ACCY circuit connects to the brake switches and a short to ground will take out the fuse. A problem with the ABS diode pack can also cause the brake light to fail.
