RE: Check Engine Light?
I just bought a brand new electra glide Classic. Mine did the same thing. I called the dealer and they told me to bring it in. They fixed it for free. Turns out I wasn't getting enough compression. Said that had I not brought it in it could have voided my warranty.

So did they just fill you up with compression and send you on your way?

thats happend to me lots of times. a double light (if it goes offf) tells you that there is a history code in the ecm. Usually clears itself after aprox. 40 starts.There is a proceedure to erase the codes using the spedo reset button. Mine kept showing a throtle position trouble code. Terry s.

I'll take a large can of compression and a side order of spark gap. Oh and a small order of exhaust note to go......
