Question about check engine - 2011 Softail

I have a 2011 Softail Heritage Classic. Rode today with no problems, it was very hot out. This evening the bike started fine, however the check engine light and a little red light (electric / security system - according to manual, which my bike doesn't have) were both solid lit after starting bike. Any ideas on what the problem might be?

Start at checking battery cables for tightness on both ends.
 
Thanks for helping out with comments. I ended up swinging by a dealer and they said codes (that they found) had something to do with (DMI or something that's new in 2011). Essentially the code indicated that there was a brief loss of communication between turn signal (and such) buttons and the brain of the bike. They cleared it, test drove it, and said I was good to go. If it reoccurs they said to bring it back and they would dig deeper.
