If a misfire is detected, the check engine indicator lamp will begin to flash and fuel will be cut to the affected cylinder(s). The check engine indicator lamp will continue to flash until the ignition switch has been moved to the off position. Restarting the engine will clear the flashing indicator and restore fuel to both cylinders. If another misfire occurs, the check engine indicator lamp will resume flashing and fuel will once again be cut to the affected cylinder(s). After the 3rd misfire, P0314 misfire fault is determined & set, the check engine light will remain on and fuel will be cut to the affected cylinder(s). If this occurs, your INDIAN MOTORCYCLE dealer can assist.
