Harley Davidson Trouble B2270

[Jeff Klarich]

On a 2014 Harley-Davidson motorcycle, a red light on the dash typically indicates a serious issue that requires immediate attention, often related to the security system or a problem with the bike's electrical system, and should prompt you to pull over safely and check your owner's manual for specifics on the light's meaning; if it's a flashing red key icon, it usually signifies a security system alert.
Key points about
Does your rear brake light stay on? Check all your light bulbs, could be a burnt out bulb. Also check for a pinched wire when you reassembled your speedo/dash.

Yes, everything works fine, but there is one caveat: the rear stop light, it is combined with turn signals and some of the bulbs on it do not work, here is a photo.

Not sure if that's your issue but doing some research it says a faulty light bulb can cause the red light to come on as it's in the loop of your electrical system. It basically acts as a check engine light for your electrical system.

A wrong bulb or bad connection in the socket could be a problem Enuff to set the red light on the speedo

I don't have another stop signal yet to check if the error disappears, but I disconnected this stop and the error still persists, I'll try to find another one and recheck it later.

Here's something else I found as to why the red light comes on.

On a 2014 Harley-Davidson motorcycle, a red light typically indicates a serious issue, most commonly related to low oil pressure, a problem with the security system, faulty wiring, or a malfunctioning sensor, requiring immediate attention and pulling over safely to investigate further.

How old is your battery? try doing a load test.
Others have indicated a bad or going bad battery can set off the light.

Check for loose/corroded ground where the BCM harness goes to frame??
Just a guess

I changed the battery and it was not the battery and the oil level is also normal, but I have a Power Commander 5, can it malfunction and that's why the red light comes on, although I also removed it and the light was on

I'll try to see

If you took the Power Commander out of the loop then you can eliminate that as the source.
Check the sensor that is used for the light, you may have to track down which one it is in your Manual, you may be able to find the wiring schematic here on the forum as well. I also read that that could be a possible source.

I can find information on the forum how to remove PW 5 as a source?
