warning lights

[skiprat]

Thanks for the warm welcome to a newbie, my first question is about the operation of the warning lights when starting the bike, The bikes warranty has just ended, still one more year on engine after work done on head.
The last work done was the ECM exchange, this gave the windscreen raise lower problems, fixed with software update. I then felt that on key turned to ignition that I wasnt getting the same light display as with previous ECM, read the handbook (a first) which states battery warning light illuminates and stays on till engine starts which is straightforward but oil pressure I am not sure about, on my bike a non SE Trophy the battery light does not do the 1.5 sec lamp check or illuminate before starting, phoned dealer and he checked his two Trophys and said they are the same as mine and would contact Triumph, gave him a week and called him he says the feeling is that it is a TYPO, I told him I was not happy with that answer and now waiting for a call, asked this on Facebook and only one reply and it was same as mine so I wonder is it a TYPO? are all our bikes like this.

Hope you have something in writing about the engine warranty being another year? Usually any warranty work carried out in the original term ends with the termination of the manufactures warranty term. Usually a contribution from manufacturer if a major failure but this will be minimal at most.
Good luck with that if needed  It took over 6 months to get my SE replaced and I reported dangerous faults after the secon day of ownership

With the head recall we got extra time on the warranty
