My first Thread - I need some help!
Picked up my brand new GS TB from Allan Jefferies on 25/4. They transferred the BMW Aux (Fog) lights, plus fittings from my 14 model year GS LC to the new bike.
When I got home I noticed the LH aux light (as you are sat on the bike) was on all the time. With Day Time running lights, dipped lights it was there blazing away. The switch did put both lights on as per the manual when the day time running light was off. Fiddled with the settings and tried everything I could think of and the light just stayed on whilst the bike ignition was on. I mentioned this to AJs sales who said "don't worry we'll sort it out at the first service".
I took the bike in on 12/5 for it's first service and noticed the techs doing a lot of head scratching. After a few hours the service bloke said the problem had them and BMW stumped and asked me to leave the bike so they could do some fault finding. I was given an R1200R as a loaner while they fixed it. Two days later a call from AJs saying they still hadn't located the fault. BMW customer services pretty much said "our techs are highly trained and the dealer will sort it out for you". Humph.. feeling a bit peed off at this stage. Otherwise the bike runs sweet as a nut.
So here I am 16/5 without my GS TB rapidly and losing confidence in BMW and AJs techs ability to sort this out. This is where you forum experts come in.
Please, please please, has anyone any ideas what could be causing this? AJs and BMW seem to have tried everything, expect a full new of kit, so sort this out!
Thanks
