Yes I had this problem with the aux socket switching off.

My dealer rewired the GPS and Autocom into the front parking light and since then no problems.

It is a software bug on the bike in my case.

To put a photo in the thread and the 'logo' (we call them Avatars) you need to upgrade your membership and pay the annual fee. You don't have to do this to continue posting here, but it does come with benefits. Full info here

I hope that helps

It's nothing to do with the battery, it is a "glitch" in the software from what I've read which causes the can bus system to switch off the auxilary sockets intermitantly (scuse spelling).

I'm guessing your Autocom is wired through one of the auxilary socket feeds, therefore you lose it when the error ocurs.

Has happened to me once but fortunately that was it. Some have had it happening regularly, and the system resets when you turn the bike off.

Apparently there is an updated version of the software coming which will solve this issue. Well so I've read anyway.

Hope this helps.
