Rode from Texas to California last week and a few times throughout the trip my security light would come on, and stay on. I'd pull over, turn the bike off, start it would either be gone or go out once I hit about 30 MPH. Fresh FOB battery, FOB was in my pocket, any ideas what the cause is and if I should be worried about it on my trip back?
ETA: 2021 Electra Glide Standard. I found some old posts here about the same issue so I followed that advice, I had a BCM error code #b2161h, also had a scrolling code of PN 41000349F. The only thing I can think is that somewhere in Arizona my headlight got hit by something and broke the actual glass lens, lights still work but maybe that's causing it? Any help is greatly appreciated. Also posted in touring models before I though of this section, sorry for the double post.

Without knowing model and year it's likely the light is telling you one of the lights is out or intermittent.
You need to read the codes to see what is setting that light.
