Default engine stall

Ok I'm new here please be easy.Looks like the best place to get some good answers.
I have a 2000Road King efi.
Heres my problem that has recently surfaced,the bike will start ,after a few minutes warm up I pull out the drive,down the road come to the stop sign and it dies.It will restart and eveything is fine from then on.Then on occasion after this happens I get the engine light on,and it will come and go then eventually stay off.On rare occasion it doesn't want to start,I shut the ignition off for a few then away it goes.I tried to check the diagnosis with the ignition switch and it goes crazy flashing every code known to man.Well I'm figuring it has to be something other than whats flashing or the thing would't run at all!! Anybody got any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

Check the IAC sensor....should read 38 to 42 steps at 160 degrees
