Spare wheels

[pitrat101]

Just about to put some different wheels on my 2012 TC they do not have TPS sensors in. Will this an error up or just simply not register?

Thanks

It'll throw an error.... Flashing light on the dash and the puncture symbol...

You can set two lots of sensors to enable wheel swaps, BMW or a GS911 job.

It can sometimes be difficult to wake up long dormant sensors. BMW have a special gizmo for the job.


Sent somehow.

If you have the codes ( normaly 6 or 7 digits ) you can write them to the bike (2 pairs with a GS911) as posted by G5RJO .
Ounce you have the codes the wake up is not a problem.
Some of the car tyre shops carry the newer tps tools that will read the codes on the BMW bike sensors.
I have a friend who has one, holds it near the sensor and it displays the data, codes battery state etc.
If you have working sensors on the bike and know someone with a GS911 it is always a good idea to retrieve the codes for future reference.
If you purchase the sensors from BMW make sure the codes are on them. ( a separate sticker to the bar code usually on the potted / valve side)
I have known dealers to remove the code sticker so they can charge to have the sensors woken up.
