Hi all

I got a 2012 G650GS last week. I've noticed a few times that when the ignition is turned on before starting (only sometimes, I usually keep it in the steering lock position and nothing to do with hot starts) instead of doing the usual speedo needle up &down & pre-start checks & lights, sometimes the LCD says ABS, then 1-4 and 14-30 above it at the same time, then the pre start checks happen. When all is ready to go the trip clocks and time of day clock have reset to 0 and 12:00 respectively.

Not a huge issue on their own, but 1) pain when the petrol light is on, I can't tell my total mileage since the light came on first as it resets on startup, and 2) I wonder if it's a sign of a problem higher up the chain.

Any thoughts?
 
After 2 weeks in the BMW garage they isolated it to water inside the fuse box! Have no idea how that happened, it's a March 2012 bike and I just got it a month ago. Still under warranty thank God and they were a bit suss about doing it under the warranty because they suspected the box had been opened by the previous owner.

Anyway. All sorted after replacing some wiring and back in the game.:thumb

perhaps the previous owner opened the box to replace a fuse or do these fuses reset themselves?
