Check engine lights up. Not blinking
#1
Mine is RS 2017 with 27,500km. Just had the check engine light coming up without blinking on the way home from work yesterday.

Bike running without any issue but just the yellow check engine indicator on. I'm wondering if anyone experience this, please share. Thanks

Someone with a factory service manual may be able to tell you how to determine what fault caused it. Without knowing that, I wouldn't ride it except slowly to the dealer or a qualified mechanic.
An addendum: things may different on the 2017RS, but the Owner's Manual for the 2010 bike says the engine (or PGM-FI) malfunction indicator lamp,
Quote:Lights when there is any abnormality in the PGM-FI (Programmed Fuel Injection) system. Should also light for a few seconds and then go off when the ignition switch is turned ON and the engine stop switch is at ⟳ (RUN).

If it comes on at any other time, reduce speed and take the motorcycle to your Honda dealer as soon as possible.

MIL on= DTC is set = retrieve it and fix it accordingly.
MIL on indicates MPI/emission (if RS has PCSV) malfunction, whether history or present.
Don't experiment..
Good luck

Yes, peter, but how to retrieve and interpret the DTC?

The best is scanner since there is no blinking which may indicate system normal at present. My advice = see dealer for best accuracy.
Do not delete without reading DTC.
There is a procedure in my 13-14 shop manual (not RS)..p 5-12 to 5-16 for automotive oriented users...

The CEL will illuminate steady at RPMs above 1700 or with sidestand up.

It's on steadily when turning the key on and either at idle RPMs at 1400 or above 1700. I kept on riding for 2 days and try to notice any abnormal signs but none so far but the CEL

Turn ignition switch on, with stop/run switch in run mode, without starting the engine.
If ECM has stored DTC, the CEL/MIL will illuminate 0.3 seconds, go off, then start blinking code.
If no stored DTC, CEL/MIL will illuminate and stay on until after engine is started, per the FSM.

Tuan, where in Vietnam are you located?
