Mine showed the same systems and it turned out to be the tilt sensor. You can test it by grounding to frame or simply unplugging it. You'll get an engine light but the bike will run. About $70 from HD.
Yup, they had replaced that, as well as the coil. (grasping at straws, I'd reckon) Buddy finally took it to HD in desperation, paid them to look for codes...of course none showed up, which feeds my belief that it's an electronic part that works JUST FINE, right up until one of its components stops working from over-heat (Which goes back to that frightful burnt electronics smell emanating from the ignition module) Looks like they're about $260 from dealer, else
I may well spend months getting a clear title to this thing, but I hate to have it sit, only able to run for 3-4 minutes. Might buy one of these used things
