Default DTC Code Help 2012 Deluxe

While out on a ride the other day my battery light came on (no check engine light). When I got back home the bike would not start right after shutting down, but I could get it to start after about .5hr. I haven't ridden since, but I have started the bike without issue after being on a trickle charger.

I checked the DTC codes using the odometer and it turns out the bike is throwing a few codes:

ECM y: P0562, P01632, and Pn 001118-01

BCM y: b2161, b2173 and Pn 69991-11A

SPDO y: b1210 and Pn 67439-11

Can any break down what these codes mean?

Thanks

Does anyone have all the codes? While it was nice of you to provide a link, the newer CAN BUS bikes like the OP and my 2012 Deluxe's have which don't throw "PSSPt". They have "DIAG" and when you press the "Trip" button you scroll through "ECM", "BCM" and "SPDO".

This morning, my 2012 Deluxe is showing BCM Y with codes:

b2136
b2141
b2146
u0142

Would anyone have the meaning for those codes?

Thanks

*edit: I think I figured out b2136 but would still be nice to have clarification. I cleared the codes but b2136 won't go away. I see that the headlight is out. I believe b2136 to be the headlight.

Haven't had a chance yet to run the bike to see if the others come back or not. Still would be nice to know what they are.

*edit: Ok, after much digging...found this site: http://www.scribd.com/doc/229588490/...BSE-Supplement Page 167 starts the codes listing.

In that I found that b2141 is from left front turn signal being out. b2136 is from the low beam being out (as I figured), b2146 is from right front turn signal being out and u0142 is lost communication from LHCM. Hope these codes make a sticky for others. Maybe someone can figure out how to get the list into the body of this thread.
