RE: brake faults

["customtankbags" <customtankbags@xxxxxxxxx>]

If you just want to reset the error, the technique is as follows:

Locate the blue diagnostic plug under the seat and uncover it.  Using a
piece of wire about 18" long, put one end in the center socket and hold the
other against something grounded.  On my RT, I use one of the heavy bolts
down on the right side near the rear brake.  While holding, turn on the key
and hold down the ABS switch for 8-10 seconds.  When you release, the ABS
lights should have stopped flashing alternately and you're good to go.

If this happens repeatedly, check the gap of the ABS sensors and/or take it
to a dealer to check out.

Good Luck,

Well I need help again from you learned Gentlemen.
How do you cancel the fault in the ABS brakes on a R1100RT???? This the
first time I have ever had one.
BTW I decided to try the BMW gel battery and thanks for all your input.

Jack
