RE: Security warning light
What Mixed Nuts said... Check for fault codes...
Here is the deal on security systems. HD uses one wiring harness and speedo design because it is cheaper than having to make up one for and one for without the security system. Everyone gets a wiring harness and speedo which is setup the same and ready to connect to a security module (yup, you've got the red key light). If you got a bike without the security system it means you just don't have the security module installed. OBTW, the dealer can sell you the module and install it, then they'll sell you the siren module, then they'll sell you the...
Sound like the standard HD theme? One Hundred Dollar, Two Hundred Dollar, Three Hundred Dollar...

RE: Security warning light
My security light comes on when the bike is hot and goes out when it cools. But the neutral light comes on first no matter what gear its in or it its in neutral. Dealer says come by when its on an they will check it. Well whern it happens either I am no where near them or they are closed so that didn't work out. !000 mi. sevice coming up. Since the weather has cooled it dosnt happen as often. What do you want to bet thay wont find anything untl next summer and they will keep the bike forever.

RE: Security warning light
I picked up my 06 Ultra today after warranty service on the stereo system. As I rode away, I saw the security light come on when I hit the right turn signal... and the turn signal was inop. Brought the bike back, after some headscratching by the wrench who did the service, they unplugged and replugged in the brake/turn combiner module under the seat. Problem solved. Either they'd unplugged the unit and not gotten it plugged back in correctly, or it lost good contact in some other way.
At any rate, that's *one* condition that will cause the security light to come on. At least this one was easily fixed!

Security light....
I know this is an old thread but still a common problem. My security light on my 04 fatboy comes on most of the time now. The last 'little' change out I did was change my turn signals to LED's. Could this have caused the issue? Bike is running just fine so I pretty much ignore the light.... until I don't ignore it... yeah its aggravating.

Sounds like you need to check the trouble codes.
