Default Check engine light on...

New bike, 489 miles on the clock. I installed a CB radio yesterday, by the instructions, pulled the main fuse before I began work. Bike ran great, today I start it and the check engine light stays on. Pulled the main fuse again, re-set, still on. Dealership can't get me in until Monday, maybe...... Anyway is there anything I can do with out the HD PC or not ??? Bike runs fine......

Thanks Be Safe JIM

If it were me... Treat it like a sore ***** and don't screw with it. Park it and take it in monday.

There is a chance, all be it small, that something else went wrong. Coincidence? With my luck, if I rode it, the engine would shred from an oil issue. Murphy is always out there...

OK, My friend was able to hold down the resettable miles switch/ trigger and we were able to get the codes.... P00031 which is the 02 sensor..... Started the bike about 8 times since the light was on, now on the 9th the light is out. Just my luck, going to bring it by the dealership on Monday anyway but I know they aren't going to do anything if the light isn't on. Will post if anything happens, Be Safe JIM

My 16 threw the same code and it put the bike into limp mode.
