Default Error code 0?

I'm not sure if this is an error code but when I tried to start my bike and pressed the starter button a 0 appeared in the LED panel and besides the lights all coming on that was all that happened. I know it's not that my fob batteries are dead because when that happens I get enter pin but I replaced the fob battery anyway.


Anybody have any ideas on what it might be? I rode the bike yesterday with no issue.

Blinking 0 would appear after the Enter PIN message, so if it's not blinking I'm not sure what it is.

Year and model?

Default New wrinkle

In a new wrinkle in this mystery I went up to the bike without a fob in hand and hit the on button. For the first time I got the code to enter a pin. From that I assume it's something with my fobs/security system.

I get this a lot. I know, I know, but check that the fob battery is in the correct orientation.

So after reschooling myself on how to use the pin I entered the pin and the display went back to show me a 0. I can toggle through the rest of the settings but no response at all when I hit the start button.
Lights are all strong so it doesn't seem like it could be the battery. I guess I'm going to have to get it towed to the stealership and see what the deal is. Hopefully it's still covered under the warranty.

If it's the original battery I would be highly suspect of it's strength. If you can remove it and take it to the dealer for a load test.
