you say it's good on fluid but all it takes is a cap full to make that light go off. Other than the light are you getting any other things going on?

Little checking.....
I agree with the checking fluid level as it is a common issue. Other common problems we have seen with this is folks ryding with their foot on the brake pedal and sticking brake light switches. If things clear after a re-start and don't come back on shortly could be the flluid level if it comes back on after ryding for a while it will be something else. Start with the fluid level ....

To get the codes, with the orange screen displayed and the bike on but not running, do this:

Use a good flashlight to verify the fluid level in the master cylinder reservoirs and be certain the caps are reinstalled with the vents properly oriented, at about 5 o'clock when sitting on the bike with 12 o'clock being dead ahead. The pictures of the caps on pg 135 of the operator's guide do not give a good representation of the vent orientation
Artillery lends dignity to what would
otherwise be a vulgar brawl.

I just had to replace the two master cylinder caps on my 2014 RTS because the o ring in them was deteriorated to the point of leaking.
