Electrics failure on a 2015 r1200gs

[steveh]

This morning my dash has thrown a wobly and as a result

1. Fuel gauge isn't working
2. Red triangle is on the dash
3. Indicators don't work
4. Brake lights don't work

My headlights still seem to work and the bike starts fine and also the heated grips work (but the dash doesn't show this).

Anyone have any ideas? I'm currently at work so haven't tried disconnecting the battery (thinking reboot) however any other thoughts greatly appreciated.

Under warranty?

If so, call BMW Assist

Check cables to battery are tight, not sure how this would effect the rest as bike started, but sometimes weird things happen.

Have you checked the battery? Mine dropped a cell last Friday and the bike threw quite a few errors

Fuse in slot one under riders seat. 10 amp. This is for instrument cluster, gin lock and diagnostic cluster. Slot two 7-5 amp and for left multifunction switch and tpm.

Good luck.
