Clearing the fault code sd_42

[fourbarrel]

The speed sensor RTV let go on my last ride,causing the sd_42 fault code.I have the sensor back in with new rtv but now the code wont go away and the sled wont go in reverse.Is the reverse thing a result of there being a current code? And how do I clear it? I'll be finishing up my summer storage procedure in the next week or so,and the battery will be coming out.Just curious if that will do it or will I have to take it to a dealer and have it cleared.

ps I should have included this in my original post, but my speedo reads 260 mph now.

Thread 'Speed Sensor Code P1009'

Dec 23, 2024

Went into the chain case to change gears and upon re-assembly, forgot to plug in speed sensor. Sled threw code P1009. I stopped and plugged the speed sensor back in, but code still flashed and speedo won't work. Disconnected battery and still have coolant code. Hooked up my flasher and read the code, but can't clear it

In addition, the odometer adds miles exponentially. Traveling 2 miles will put 30 on the odometer.

Anyone ever had experience this?
