Re: [ST] Check Engine Light



Chris,

Was the light on while the engine was running? On my '01 ST the check engine
light recently came on BUT only when I turned the key off (it stayed on even
with the key out ot the bike). Of course, the bike ran fine. What I did to
reset the light was disconnect the battery ground. However, I wouldn't
necessarily recommend you do this in your case, since it flushes the memory
out of the computer chip the dealer uses to code the problem. You might want
to take the bike in and have it checked. Good luck.
