BMW R1200GS User Manual

ABS self-diagnosis not
completed
ABS warning light flashes.
Possible cause:
ABS self-diagnosis not
completed
The ABS function is not avail-
able, because self-diagnosis
did not complete. (The motor-
cycle has to reach a defined
minimum speed for the wheel
sensors to be checked: min
5 km/h)
Pull away slowly. Bear in mind
that the ABS function is not
available until self-diagnosis has
completed.
ABS fault
ABS warning light flashes.
Possible cause:
The ABS control unit has detec-
ted a fault. The ABS function is
not available.
You can continue to ride. Bear
in mind the more detailed in-
formation on situations that can
lead to an ABS fault message
( 104).
Have the fault rectified as
quickly as possible by a
specialist workshop, preferably
an authorised BMW Motorrad
dealer.
ABS deactivated
ABS warning light flashes.
Possible cause:
The rider has switched off the
ABS system.
Activate the ABS function.
ASC intervention
The ASC warning light
quick-flashes.
The ASC has detected a degree
of instability at the rear wheel
and has intervened to reduce
torque. The warning light flashes
for longer than ASC intervention
lasts. This affords the rider visual
feedback on control intervention
even after the critical situation
has been dealt with.
ASC self-diagnosis not
completed
The ASC warning light
slow-flashes.
