So the bike had a 1200 kit, but no flash? What does the dealer say now?

this all started after the flash. i need to bring it back. won;t start so i need them to pick it up. out the price of a new battery and i gave the shop $1400 to do the work and look over the bike so it would be perfect. don't know what the problem is or what they might try charging me. this was not a problem until i took it to them
