Default Multiple codes

Not sure what is happening, when I first start bike I have no warning lights on. After 20 minutes or so of riding I get check engine light, abs and red security lights. I lose all button functions on left side thumb controls. When I am able to check codes( hard to do when thumb controls don't work)they are random and have no matches when looked up.

new battery
Thanks in advance,

The title of you thread is "Multiple codes", yet you can't tell us what they are?

This issue just appeared out of nowhere all of a sudden? I mean, one day the bike is fine and now it's not?

Throw us a bone.

If you just put a battery in it, that's the first place I would be checking. Sounds like a poor connection issue to me.

Started about 2 months ago... before replacing battery.. at 1 in 5 times I would ride.. I keep the bike on a tender so battery is always fully charged. I have checked and rechecked the battery connection, my next check is the grounds at voltage regulator ( once weather clears. I will have codes for everything (ecm,bcm,radio,security ect)

Follow the electrical diagnostic sticky thread in the electrical forum. Make sure battery is fully charged first. Should 12.7 volts, key off.

Default Finally able to get codes

Well it finally cooperated with me and I was able to retrieve and reset codes.. see list below
ECM, U0001, U0141, U0156
BCM, B2260, U0121, U0141
SPEEDO, U0001, U0121, U0141
ABS, U0100, U0140, U0156, U1042, U0001, U0003
RADIO, U0002, U0141, U0001

All from a 30 minute ride, voltmeter( factory in fairing) shows 12 1/2 to 13 volts while riding. It starts fine anytime I stop and shut it off. I have started following the trouble shooting sticky as previously suggested. But am open to a short cut...lol... my old behind don't have a lift and with my bad back I can only do so much at a time..

Thanks in advance
