Lightbulb Having an issue with that little red light staying on?

You know that little red light that monitors your security system (among other things)? Handbook says if it comes on and stays on, take it to an HD dealer. Before you do, change the batteries in your fob to see if that fixes it.

I did, and the only little red light I see now is from a porch in the seedy part of town.

I wonder what the dealer would charge for a fob battery swap... probably on backorder.

You're probably joking, but if not you probably shouldn't be out in public.

I was joking, but you're probably right.

My point was if someone took their bike to the dealer because the little red light was on, I wonder what the bill would look like for a fob battery replacement.

My bet would be 1/2 a shop hour to pull codes and perhaps hook up the digital tech. Next question would be: What does Harley charge for that battery?
