2013 Yamaha Gas Red Led on Dashboard

[OnInTwo]

Does anyone know why this light may flash besides low on oil? Recently it would stay on solid, then flash and then go off. I ended up replacing the battery and now all is well again. I suspect Yamaha uses this led to commutate errors codes of some sort via a series of long and/or short flashes. It would be very helpful to know if these error codes exist and what the various flash sequences / error codes mean.

You are correct- Im sure your favorite repair place would have this info, or a google search may come up with it.

Sounds like a loose or corroded connection or bad sensor.
Pretty sure it's only a low oil indicator.
Post back if when you find out it's purpose.

I thought it’s low fuel ⛽️? Notice it flashes when my tank low and the gas slouching around? I looked in my owners manual and it says it engine oil light. So if you’re oil level is correct might be glitch? I find it strange mine only will occasionally flash when gas level low?

I suspected that, but didn’t see it in the owner’s manual?
Mine is EFI. So maybe it does flash when low on fuel?

I have the workshop manual, it’s flashing fault codes.

There should be X number of long flashes (1 sec long) followed by X number of short flashes (0.5 sec long) followed by a 3 second pause, then either a repeat of the first pattern of flashing or a different one if there are more than 1 fault.

Let me know you flash pattern and I can tell you the fault.
