BMW r1200GS lc 2013 problems

It doesn't sound like an alternator. You don't have the alternator light on the dash too do you ?

Sounds like your dodgy charger or socket might have tripped a fuse on a control unit. They're not physical switches. Because all of those things that aren't working are controlled by a single control unit. You've got a red triangle. Get it plugged in.


You could try disconnecting your battery for 24 hrs too. They might reset.

There is no alternator symbol or light on the 2013 if i recall its just the battery light which can be

Duff battery / failure of the charging circuit / alternator regulator fuse blown

That's what mine had. Red battery symbol on the dash for it - and the charging volts were low, and falling.

So new battery has been fitted. Bike was left 48hrs without a battery in. Symptoms same. I’ve ridden the bike for about 4 miles (with no brake lights/indicators) and nothing reset.
So still red triangle and battery icon on display with no hi beam, fuel level, heated grips, Nav 5 not powering up and like I said no brake lights/indicators. Apart from that it runs fine!
Spoke to a local bike repairer who has a gs911 and he said it needs to go on a proper BMW diagnostic machine as the gs911 won’t help.
I’ll get it booked in and see what Bowker BMW says on Monday.

Quick update - the ZFE controller device under the tank was fried and had to be replaced. Dealer coded it to bike, all is fixed now. Wallet damage £638. About half of that was labour.
