Default Round red light next to speedo needle??

I looked in the manual and it says it is an "electronics light" and comes on when the alarm is armed or something. I have no security system on my bike.

It is just a red dot close to the bottom of the speedo needle area. It came on last night while riding.

My bike is a 2015 Low Rider.

Anyone without an alarm ever had theirs come on??

I believe it means your bike's throwing a trouble code.

The other guys are close, it is what is known as a BCM (Body Control Module) fault warning light. I kept getting that light on when my front brake master cylinder was acting up.
