kenpok1200 Posted January 13, 2007 Share Posted January 13, 2007 Hi, I had a driveway drop left side and now the ABS lights are flashing at me. Does anyone know if there is a reset button for this or do I have to go see the dealer? Thanks. Link to comment
duckbubbles Posted January 13, 2007 Share Posted January 13, 2007 What kind of bike are we talking about? Frank Link to comment
kenpok1200 Posted January 13, 2007 Author Share Posted January 13, 2007 Sorry. Thought I typed it in. K1200rs 2001. Link to comment
Laney Posted January 13, 2007 Share Posted January 13, 2007 Could you have lost any brake fluid? If the fluid's low - at least on the '02 K1200RS - the ABS lights flash. Link to comment
kenpok1200 Posted January 13, 2007 Author Share Posted January 13, 2007 No fluid loss..... Levels okay. Link to comment
Carnadero Posted January 13, 2007 Share Posted January 13, 2007 Out of curiosity, you did check both reservoirs, right? Here is some more info that might help. Link to comment
ESokoloff Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 Out of curiosity, you did check both reservoirs, right? Just for clarification you are checking the reservoirs as shown in photo 1 here ? Link to comment
GKRS Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 Which side did you drop it on? If you dropped in on the right side, there could be an issue with the right rear break contact. Link to comment
Carnadero Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 Just for clarification you are checking the reservoirs as shown in photo 1 ? If his bike has the non-EVO setup, the rear reservoir will be a bit smaller and round in shape. A few pics here. Link to comment
Beemeroil Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 Take the bike to your dealer and have them clear this fault. What happened was your drop allowed the rear wheel to spin and this will cause the computer to show this fault. This not uncommon and I am afriad to mention that is not uncommon for some dealers to sell and install all kinds of sensors or pumps. Probably these guys do this out of ignorance, but have them clear the fault and ride for a while before discussing any other options. Link to comment
warmshed Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 Does anyone know if you reset the ABS on the EVO K1200RS yourself like the ABS1 or2? Check the battery, low voltage is a prime suspect. Maybe you lost batter fluid when it laid over, quick to check. Dave. Link to comment
bmwmick Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 No, The K1200RS he's referring to is an ABS-II bike and the new diagnostic connector is different than the older K-Bikes and the R1100 Oilheads. He needs to have the dealer reset it and then keep an eye on the fault lights. I'm pretty sure it is just the wheel speed mismatch that caused the problem. Mick Link to comment
ghan Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Can the ABSIII/EVO bikes develop the same problem from a drop and wheel speed mismatch? Link to comment
ESokoloff Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 Hi Gary Ok end hijack. Link to comment
bmwmick Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 Gary, I don't believe the iABS bikes store that wheel speed fault the same way the ABS-II bikes do. Mick Link to comment
