How To Determine Trouble Codes From 2002 and Later Harleys

(for FLTHT, FLHTC, FLHTC-I, FLHTC Ultra-I, FLTR and FLTR-I models)

Knowing which DTC Codes are stored by your bike's ECM can greatly assist you in determining the source of a problem you are having. In order to check the codes on an EFI-equipped Electra Glide (FLHTC/U-I), Road Glide (FLTR-I) or Road King (FLHRC-I) without the benefit of a scanalyzer, do the following:

  • Turn the key switch to 'OFF'.


  • Set the handlebar kill switch to 'On'.


  • Push in the speedometer reset button and, while holding it in, turn the ignition switch to 'RUN'.


  • While still holding the speedometer reset button in, wait while the speedometer needle moves to the end of its scale and back, the lights flash, instrument panel lights up and, finally, the word 'diag' appears on the LCD readout. Once 'diag' appears, let go of the speedometer reset button.


  • Now push the speedometer reset button once more, so the world 'PSSPt' appears. 'PSSPt' represents 4 regions of diagnostic information ('P', 'S', 'SP' and 't') that can be displayed. Pressing the speedometer reset button lets you choose which one you will read next. For instance, to get to 'SP' you would now push the reset button twice. The selected area is indicated by its letter(s) flashing.

    • P = ECM/ICM (Electronic Control Module (EFI) / (Ignition Control Module, 'Carbureted')
    • S = TSM/TSSM (Turn Signal/ Turn Signal Security Module)
    • SP = speedometer
    • T = tachometer

  • Once you have the diagnostic area you want selected, push in the reset button and hold until the display changes. If there are any codes to be displayed, the first one will appear now. If there are more codes, pushing the reset button again will cause the next one to appear. If there are no codes, the word 'nONE' will appear.


  • You may clear the code you are currently viewing (the first one to appear being the latest one stored) by now pushing in the reset button and holding it in for 5 seconds.

    • Clearing a code can be useful in determining how frequently the code is being generated. If you clear the code you can then run the bike and check again to see if the code has come back right away.


    • If you want to know what any code means, write it down and refer to the chart below to interpret.

  • Once finished, turn the ignition key to 'OFF'.
