Check Engine Light
A: Would be disappointing to have a charging system problem with so few miles. Regardless, that is where we would suggest you start. Test your charging system. Also, check your speedo head for stored diagnostic trouble codes.

Try reading your codes and write them don if trouble.
Hold your trip odometer button and turn on. Let go of button and you will enter. Look at trip odometer. Push 1 time and the p will flash. Push and hold to go into p. A code will show up. Write it down. Then push and hold to clear it. More than 1 code maybe there. Clear the same way. When done turn off ignswitch and give it a try.
Hi Mark, great feedback and here’s the video: http://www.fixmyhog.com/video/troubleshoot-with-harley-error-codes-008010/
while cruzin up the road on 2013 ultra limited I noticed my battery lite and check engine lite on and my volt meter reading 12 volts about a mile up the road they both went out when I got home I checked all my connections to find them tight. the battery is less then a year old I took it out the next day with no problem, going to leesburg fl soon should I be coserned?
Good call checking your battery connections. Don’t forget to check both ends of each cable (@ the starter & @ the frame).
Check your stator & regulator plug connections as well.
We would suggest doing a charging system test.

I have a 2014 street glide and my check engine light stays on. The diagnostic trouble code indicates P1655 ACR solenoid low/open. What is that and is this an easy fix?
Hi Jerry. ACR is Automatic Compression Release.
Try clearing the code. See if it comes back. If the compression release needs to be replaced, you will need to purchase a special socket from HD

Is the trouble code P1655 a serious issue? Does it cost a lot to fix it?
Ok I have an 08 electra glide..Engine light came on..4 codes came up,,P0154,P1353,P1510,P2138..What would cause these all at once ??
Hi Gary. There is a good chance that you have a bad Twist Grip Sensor that is sending the bike into limp mode.
Have had similar combo of codes on a number of occasions. Ended up being TGS majority of the time.

Got a new 2018 street glide spacial and the engine light is staying on any ideas
You can check to see what error code(s) you have. Then, you can erase it. Depending on what the error is; the light may or may not stay off.

I’m having a similar issue with my 2015 Road King, check engine light comes on, I get P1510, P2127 & P2138 codes which seem to indicate there’s an issue with the throttle sensors? Stealership wants $125.00 just to diagnose, plus any other additives…has anyone had a similar issue?
I have a 2014 Ultra Limited. The check engine and temp lights come on after a few miles. I checked the codes and got codes P1019 and U0184. I also checked the fans come one when I test them but when needed. I changed the temp sensors in the head and radiator in the left lower fairing. The U0184 code went away but the light still comes on and I still get code P1019.
Check engine light came on , long with the battery light? Check oil level. Charged battery. Lights went off but came back on. I have a 2007 Sportster 1200 C. Thank you in advance Joe
Ticket 20721 My motorcycle is a 07 roadking classic. The check engine and battery light come on. The motorcycle run good. The norsp come on the first p in the diagnostic check. The battery is new and spark plugs. I need help.
Dear Luis,

We would suggest starting by performing a full charging system test.

Why would a check engine light come on and stay on with my softail in off position? Light stays on all time
I have a 2014 softail deluxe. I recently installed an easy clutch onto the end of my cable. to do this I had to take off the exhaust system and the o2 sensors. when I was done all went back together perfect. but now I have 2 codes for my 02 sensors p00031 and p00051. what caused this and how do I fix it. thanks.
Dear Marty,
Thank you for your patience. In response to your question-
Likely that codes exist from energizing system when sensors were not plugged in.
Make sure you did not mix up sensors. Grey is front. Black is rear.

where do I find what these codes are. I am sorry I bought this Twin cam it is designed so you can’t do your own work. I love my 72 FLH it is just a big lawn mower and easy to work on.

I have a 2008 Ultra Cvo, 3000 original miles. Coming back from a trip, lost front cylinder. Got it home replace plugs and plug wires and put new injectors in. Everything in the tank was replace by Harley after the bike had been sitting so long. Error codes were P0131, P0151,P0502,P1353,P1356. C0562. Now the codes I am getting are P0263,P1356, B1005. Any advice would be appreciated.
We would suggest that you check for spark on both cylinders and perform a fuel pressure test.
