There will be many opinions. When that happened to me I pulled off the plug at the Throttle Body, cleaned it put some dielectric grease in the plug and all was well. That was almost 2 years ago. It has not happened since. Can't remember the codes. Search Harley Davidson Tech Tip 418. I have it if you need it, pm me if you need it.

You could check this out at least one of the codes apply.

Mine it did twice also, same codes as yours. Dealer replaced the pins on the plug that goes into throttle body, so far so good.

I would look at where the harness plugs into the Throttle body, look for loose or corroded pin's, clean the connector and apply dielectric grease to the connector end and make sure it seats into the throttle body and is fully locked, clear codes and ride the bike to see if any come back, worse case scenario is the connector will have to be replaced, dealer had to replace mine on my 2009 FLHT last year.

P0120 TPS1 Range Error
P0122 TPS1 Low
P0220 TPS2 Range Error
P0222 TPS2 Low
P1510 EFI Limited Performance Mode
P1511 EFI Power Management Mode
P2135 TPS Correlation Error
