Default Engine code help

I started getting an engine code on my 2007 FLHX.

I turn the ignition on and wait for the engine light to clear and start the bike. Right after the bike starts, the engine light comes on for about 3 seconds then goes off and stays off.

I pulled the codes and got a code of P1357 which after some searching the forums found that the code is (P1357 Front Cylinder Combustion Intermittent).

Anyone got a clue. Just wondering if it has something to do with the PC111 I added recently.

Did you clear the code and see if it comes back on?

When I ran the PCIII on my 04 it would throw a code every now and again. With that code, clear it and you should be all set.

Spark plug wire not all the way on can cause it, PCIII can cause it, etc. Just check that your plug wires are popped on tight and don't worry about it. If it comes back some time down the road then it is more than likely the PCIII. The modem type controllers like the PCIII can throw codes like that.
