My new to me, 6 months now.
2003 (155) sportster 4Tec twice has started beeping about 10 minutes or so after removal of the dess key, and only way to stop it is to turn the battery off.
Any rabbit hole that I need to go down?

Thanks

First, start cleaning all of the plug/jacks in the DESS system. Look for corrosion. Use dielectric grease when assembling.
 
Dess key removed,still runs. I’ve replaced the post, cleaned and greased All plugs and sockets I could find. I get 4 beeps with no key installed.
So need to turn battery off.
Sometimes when turned back on, it seems normal. Use it 1-3 times than when dess key removed, it does not shut off.
The two dealers within 50 miles of me tell me their computer will no work on anything before 2016.
What options do I have?
