Hazard lights button

[Decster]

Does the hazard lights button have another use,ie indicate a fault or something....

I ask because i only have the maintenance instruction manual for the bike and not the rider manual with the dashboard in it. 1150GS 2002

Mine is glowing,meaning it is on all the time(not the hazard lights, the hazard lights button) and i cant remember if this is telling me something.

So if someone can enlighten me that would be great.

If you ride with your lights on, then the hazard button is also lit.

It's telling you the can bus is still active

Thought that at first then switched off lights to check and nope not that.

It's telling you the can bus is still active

Can you explain a bit more about this?Should it be active? and if not what next?

Ohh dear. What dealer does Prof boxer work at

Can someone please check the rider manual and let us in on what it says.

Otherwise i'll pop down to B*W and replace mine.

If its a big secret, just let me know will it hurt my bike if i keep riding it?

It's perfectly normal, as everyone already said.
Because it's a hazard light, you have to be able to use it in an emergency.
This is why it's lit up permanently. To allow you to see it immediately, even in the dark, in case you need it...
