I just installed an oil cooler on my bike. Part of the process required I remove the voltage regulator from it's location and put it on a bracket. When I removed the VR from the bike, I let it hand by it's two wires. This allowed it to get doused in oil a couple of times has I had to remove my oil filter. It got soaked good a couiple of times so I sprayed an oil cleaner on the back of it. reinstalled everything and rode the bike, no problem. I alter fired the bike up checking for any rattles and my check engine light and battery light came on while bike was idling..shut bike off, started it back up..bike went thru normal start up and, after all lights went off, the check engine light came on but not the battery light. OK, figured I'd check the manual.
I did a WOW test and there are no codes displayed. except for "norsp" in the ECM module. My bike has a tach but not ABS so I'm thinking that is normal. My battery cables are tight. Bike as 28K on it along with a stage 1.
My concern is my stator or VR. I have a long trip planned in /Sept and dont want any issues. what could cause the lights to illuminate and not leave a code? could it be the VR connections just needed to dry out?
Forgot to add, both lights are off now as I fired the bike up today right before I ran the WOW test.
