What little time I spent researching these codes, it seems to be lighting related.
Do all of your turnsignals & running/stop/etc lights work ? or are any
of them burned out ?

good luck,

T.

Hi, after arriving and cleaning all the connections, I found that the (positive) cable had the screw loose. I put a new battery which worked normally.
thanks

I am having a similar issue. I ride a 2016 Softail Heritage Classic and I receive the B2161 error code coupled with the PN69993-11. I've read is break light related. However, all lights do work. I've cleared the error code but after a few miles of riding, the red light comes up. I've also read that if you switch light bulbs to a non-hd brand you'll get the same error code and it would have to be "fixed" by the HD technician (something about the computer doesn't recognize non-HD light bulbs), which is BS. All light bulbs are HD brand.
So, in summary, error code B2161, all lights are working. Comments?

I’m having the same problem! The code b2161 with all brake lights working. Today I’ve noticed the plate licence light is burned. I think it could be related to the same error code.
