Road all last night (dang I am beat this morning)
Maybe it is finally all good now as I had no error codes.
I spoke with the dealer yesterday and he said since the codes were in historic, it meant that the problem only lasted for a sort stint and then everything was normal as the check engine light was not on. He also said they generally cannot get HD to reimburs them for historic codes - is this BS?
Historic codes are saved by the ECM for a specific number of engine start/stop cycles for diagnostic purposes and if the fault doesn't recur they are automatically cleared by the ECM. I'm not sure what the current number of cycles is, but it used to be 50. So those codes may have been in there for awhile and not actually reflect anything that has happened since you got the bike back. And the dealer is probably correct that Harley won't
usually pay them to try to figure out noncurrent historic codes, since there is no current fault to find. It would be like using a two year old angiogram to diagnose your heart's current status, even though you had a bypass one year ago.
Once you know you have
all codes cleared, current and historic, if you then find codes of either type you should definitely contact the dealer and H-D. Even if the codes are historic, indicating an intermittent fault that resolved itself, the odds are those faults aren't going to fix themselves permanently. With the history of this bike Harley should have no problem authorizing the dealer to try to find the intermittent faults causing those codes. Or they could just buy the bike back and let you move on to something else.
