Rancho Cucamonga, CA | Was riding home the other day, flipping thru the odometer/trip meter screens, and came across five screens with Error codes on them. I called my dealer and he didn't know what to make of it. He said there was no reference to this in the manual and I would need to bring my bike down so they could run a diagnosis.
I just wanted to see if anyone else knew what this was.
The five screens are listed by the number that comes up in the gear indicator spot, 0-4.
0 - 7 520193
1 - 2 157951
2 - 7 481535
3 - 22 184575
4 - 11 129279
Any help would be great. THe bike runs super and the only indication was that the check engine light blinked while riding. All the codes dissapeared once I turned the bike off and on. It did it once before, so I remembered to take a picture this time.

Western WA | I couldn't find anything in the manual about the codes either.
Has the dealer hooked it up to the digital wrench? |

Gettysburg, 2008 Tour Premium | You need to check your battery ground cables for good connection. Also a weak battery could trip codes. You have to look for a common solution. My wife's car threw all sort of codes when the battery wa bad. |

Rancho Cucamonga, CA | Well, I found the code for the first error message (7 520193) in chapter 5.28 of the service manual. - Idle Air Control (IAC) position out of range. Note: Low battery or system voltage can also cause P0519 to appear as a historical code. If code appears as historical and the MIL light
is not on (and no running condition problem exists), clear the code, charge battery and re-test.
I could not find any of the other error codes anywhere.
I will check battery connections tonight, but can't get down to a dealer for a few weeks. I'm hoping it isn't necessary. |

| <p>Say go to your hardware store and back in the bolts there are the little bins buy two of these on for each terminal then you know they will stay tight.</p><p>Get 1/4 inch size there about 35 cents a peace <br /></p>

Desert Hot Springs (Palm Springs area), CA | Perhaps your Ness is telling you that you've done too many mods on her!
Very interesting indeed! |

Fort Defiance, VA United States | I'm having the same issues. Error 0 7 520193. Looks like a possible idle control as you suggest or a loose connection. I've also had Error 1 27 159999. Bike also runs great as you mention. My check engine light acts just like yours. When you kill the engine, these codes disappear but are kept in memory. I've had it hooked up to the digital wrench once, but it didn't tell us much. I'm headed back to the dealer to hook it up again and Vic will be online to review further. |

Rancho Cucamonga, CA | Just wanted to close this out. It was a loose terminal connection. No problems since tightening it. |

Mt. Vernon, WASH. | From years fixing large commercial airliners, you learn to check the simple, easy stuff first, 'when did that happen?' "on the flight to here" 'let me see, ah ha! the lightbulb is burned out. 37 second troubleshooting and fix',
When you get a sudden anomaly particularly electrical in nature, start by checking connections for tightness rather than breaking the bike down to a three dimensional 'exploded view' only to discover it's the light bulb. No one seems to understand basic common sense trouble elimination, and that goes all the way to dealership shops and some in the airline industry 'I'll just throw parts at it until it's fixed' |

From years fixing large commercial airliners, you learn to check the simple, easy stuff first.....
I work on complex computer/network systems and have seen people with their eyes glazed over trying to begin to fix an issue thinking it is too complex and to big for them too handle. Right then I know they will fail without some focusing.
I sit them down and have them explain what the symptoms are. Then we eliminate things that cannot be involved. This quickly starts to point to the areas we really need to be thinking about and working on.
In the end, many issues are just like your light blub....like, "Why is this cable pulled out?" "Snap", as it is pushed in and the world is good again.
