AND Your Question Is??

It has a fault! You need the code read to know what it thinks is wrong

Remove it or Fix it are your two options!

Visual checks?
maybe a failed bulb... does the brake light come on?
Also
Make sure the thin metal rubbing strip against the rear brake pedal and microswitch is not twisted or mangled up from being skew.
Mine came adrift / distorted and caused similar to what you say - straightened it up and it's never given cause for concern in the following 5 years use.

But it don't sound good losing half the system.

Haha, the brakes are indeed soooooooo much nicer without the servo, one of the reasons the first job I did was to remove the servo.

i no you did tell me to rip the fucker out lol.

i just thought they were stronger and sharper ie more safer witch there not. after this morning going to work with no rear brake and the warning light flashing that was it for me no more servo

plus it kills your rear pads and disc's in no time. im all ready on my second disc.
