Battery light

Post by shesseltine86 »

My battery light came on and my alternator is putting out 14 volts and my bike is starting just fine. Any recommendations?
Glad to be riding again!

The bike is telling you the sensor in the battery is not touching the battery acid, need to add
battery fluid, or distilled water.
