I do have champion spark plugs not hd golds. Maybe it's causing an issue. Can't be to major as soon as I pull the power commander check light gone. And worked with doebeck. Of course it's the weekend lol so have to call them Monday. Feel free to continue to comment it suppose to be 60 here tomorrow may be my last ride of the season cause snow is coming. Thank you

power commanders don't use O2 sensors unless you are using the autotuner which is an option for power commander 5 (PC-V). PC3 requires disconnection of O2 sensors.

power commander tuners are only for Fuel Injected EFI bikes. Carbs are good old needles and jets.

Does anyone think spark plugs that are not oem could cause this issue.

I just had the same problem. Disconnected the o2 sensors. Now the system is trying to find them. Rode it 80 miles home and the light went out about 10 miles from my house? Dealer said I may need to get o2 sensor eliminators? I will see.

My powercommander V that I installed on my 2012 HD 1200C had bypass plugs for my O2 sensors. I went by the instruction sheets and had no problems.
