Lately it seems when I start my 01 Fatboy that when I turn on the ignition switch my directionals flash and then the securtiy light comes on. I press the button on my key fob and it goes away, the security light and then I start it up.....What's up? Never used to do this. I did just hard wire a zumo 550 to the battery but it was happening before I did this. Any thoughts?
I had that happen to mine about 6 months after I bought it. I dont have the security system. If I remember correctly it flashed twice then stopped. You may want to check your bulbs because thats the only thing I can remember having to change or do. I took it to the dealer and looked like an *** when asking what was up with it.
