Default Diagnostic code U0142

I have a 100% stock 2023 Ultra Limited with only 1200 miles on it. Took it to bike week in Ocean City Maryland over the weekend and 2 times it would not start. It had code U0142 on all diag entries? I was able to clear after I let the bike sit for about 30 minutes!
not what I expected from a 2 month old bike! The Codes are still cleared but taking it to the dealership tomorrow.
My question is will they be able to look into the history to see the code? I did take pictures but I am afraid that they will not be able to troubleshoot anything I’d the code is now cleared? I am hesitant to take the bike on long rides until this is resolved. Thanks in advance.

Well, something is going on with the right hand controls or other wiring issues going from the control. The fact that the issue cleared itself, it may be difficult to diagnose.

If they come with that can't duplicate the issue I would ride it close to home until it throws the code and let them pick it up where it strands you.

I won't speak for GalvTexGuy, but I think I can guess...


Maybe because it threw the diagnostic trouble code: U0142 - Lost comm w/RHCM (Right Hand Control Module)
