Check Engine Light

[Rjack]

2001 Tiger 955i. Battery went dead, no previous problem. After charging check engine light is on. What should I check? How do I turn it off? Thanks!

Just ride it ! .... the light will go off after a few rides tigers always do it when the battery is disconected or goes flat .

Like Shane says, the light is due to the battery and now will need a couple start/stop cycles to reset. Sometimes you just need one 10 to 15 mile ride to reset it and other times a couple or three start/stop cycles such as a ride to the corner store and a ride back home.

You should also invest a few bucks in an OBDII scanner, available in any parts house for as low as $35. You can read trouble codes as well as shut the darn light off right away!
