Not sure if the 2021's are different, but on my 2018 Road Glide, press and hold the odometer trip reset button on the front side of the left handle bar control switches and turn on the ignition switch. You should see the speedometer and tachometer needles sweep, then information in the odometer, and can use the same reset button to scroll through the ECM, BCM and other controls on your bike to view any codes that are stored.

But I'd contact the dealer before doing anything with the hope they can get right to it, and don't clear any codes that are stored in case you do need to take it in. And, make notes of any codes so you can look them up to see what may be happening.

It's a 2021 and still under warranty, so call the dealer, I wouldn't drive it based on the codes you have even though they are historic. Although something made the check engine light come on today. If they say you can drive it in, then do so but I'd let it be their decision.

The "h" indicates a historic code

P1511 ETC power management mode
P1600 ETC watchdog error
P1600 EFI Module Processor Internal Error / Watchdog Error
P2100 EFI Motor Circuit Open
P2105 EFI Forced engine shutdown

U1405 ACC bus lost comm w/ WIM

Since they all appear to be historic codes, there may be nothing to this but you need to know for certain. And you need to know why they are there in the first place, and why the light came on when it did. If they just clear the codes and give it back to you, I'd take it out for a good ride before you take it home and check to see if the light comes back on and any codes return.

no luck at all

I spend a total of 3 hours digging trailer out of junk in garage cleaning out another drive through garage to get to the backyard garage. hook trailer up to my explorer, time to move the bike i had started it at least 6 times including an hour earlier to move it closer to the trailer still has engine code , when I was ready to load it , turn the bike on engine light goes out after it runs for 10 seconds this time. codes should still be in storage since i didnt clear any of them took pictures of all of them Im guessing its a loose battery connection . so much for the pre check It did stall while sitting a stop light a few days earlier, started right back up. i bet it starting picking up codes after that and when they started repeating the engine light finally came on thanks for your help
