Default What is code 22718-078?
My dummy light is intermittently on. 22718-078 is the code that shows on my speedo. Nothing comes up via Google. How do you guys reference trouble codes?

That's your ECU # and not a code.

Good catch. Why would my dummy light be coming on intermittently? I'll be riding and all of a sudden it will be on. After I shut down the bike and restart it's usually (if not always) off.

I'll be checking my connections and fuses.

I read somewhere that it may be a heat warning? The poster did not seem sure.
