It came up on the b letter of the PSSpTb. the b is not listed on any code list that I can find so far. it was a C 1095 code.

this dtc is for ABS. according to manual ABS will still function fine however you may not have brake lights when applying front brake and YES , I would take it back to dealer if it did not clear after checking switch in hand control/front brake lever. Manual says can be caused by open circuit or short to ground. Have you had the switch box off lately??? pinched a wire maybe when reinstalling??? Sorry it took so long to respond, hope this helps.
