Default Starting Problem

On my 2010 FLHTCI when I turn the switch on the start and hit the start button sometimes it turns over but acts like it has no fire, I can turn switch off then back on and try to start and it will. It dosent do this very often but its kinda making me concerned. Prob gonna take it in to be looked at since it is still in warranty but what do you guys think.

Thanks a bunch.

Battery Tender to keep the battery charged ?

Check the all connections start with Battery top posts and ground to frame.

Check Starter connections.

Speedometer Self Diagnostics:
  • Turn Ignition switch to OFF & Run/Stop switch is to Run.
  • Push odometer reset button in & hold.
  • Turn ignition switch to Ignition and release odometer reset button. Background lighting sould illuminate, speedometer needle should sweep its full range and indicator lamps (battery, security, low fuel, check engine and cruise) should illuminate. The word diag should then appear.
  • Push the odometer reset button once and you will see the selection menu "PSSPt" with the first P flashing.
  • Each letter represents an area of the diagnostics module. The module that is flashing is the one you are going to check. To move from one letter (module) to the next, you push the odometer reset button one time. Example: from P to S to SP to T and back to P.
  • To get the DTC within an area of diagnostics, push and hold the odometer reset button in for 5 seconds and release. If there are any DTC's the code will be displayed or the word 'NONE' will appear if there are no DTC's.
  • Push the odometer reset button again to view additional codes if they exist -Record the codes.
  • Press and release the odometer reset button to continue to the next module.
NOTE: If Harley Davidson DTC's are not to be cleared, Press and release the odometer reset button. Part number of module will be displayed. To determine if a code is current or historic, clear the displayed code by pushing in and holding the odometer reset button (longer than 5 seconds) until 'CLEAR' comes up. Release the odometer reset button. Turn OFF the ignition switch. Run your bike and shut it down then recheck the DTC's again by repeating above steps. If the code is current it will
