Default 2014 Roadking won't start, flashers on

Last night I went bowling, was 45 deg out. Went out to have a "smoke break" (I keep a couple beers on the bike for a 16 oz is $1.25 and they sell a 12 oz can for $3.50 ) Started it up between games 2 and 3. All normal. Went out after bowling and it wouldn't start. It cranked and sputtered, then the flashers were flashing. Fast for about 5 flashes, then the security light would flash, then about 5 slow flashes. Changed the battery in the FOB , no go. Checked for codes and was one in the ECM. I think it was on310? maybe. Cleared it and still flashing. Pulled the 50 amp fuse and reinstalled. Flashing stopped and it started. Just an FYI for anyone that this happens to. Also note that I run a Thundermax with auto tune.

I had this happen with my 2018 when I let it rip over on the crash bars. What I did was followed the instructions to disable the flashers which it did. It then started.
