2012 RT Check Engine Light after Battery Change

[TexO]

I have a 2012 Rt SM5. I changed the battery and now have a "Check Engine" light. Any insights would be appreciated. The bike seems to run fine. I drove it for a couple of miles with no problems. I'm afraid to ryde any real distance for fear of it going into "Limp Mode".

The only thing that comes to mind is ... in what order you connected the terminals, or are you sure the new Battery was FULLY charged. .... Try removing the Key at least Six inches from the ignition, and waiting 5 minutes .... this clear the message .... good luck .... Mike :thumbup:

I also think, a not fully charged battery, enough juice to start, but no full charge...
Hook it to a tender, leave it overnight, key outta the way (as blueknight suggested), and it should be good to go
