  Summary

  BMW Motorrad has ascertained that in isolated cases the fuse for the voltage regulator is not correctly secured in the holder by the threaded fasteners. This can prevent the battery from being charged while the motorcycle is being ridden. If this happens the 'General' warning light shows red and the battery symbol appears in the multifunction display.

  Summary

  Wire Harness Routing. Models: 2009 - 2013 BMW R 1200 RT-P (Police). Installers may alter the original positioning of the wiring harness cables when routing radio or accessory cable during the up-fitting, or during repairs to the R 1200 RT-P model (example: clutch replacement) resulting in the following symptom: The emergency lights on the top box mounted to the rear of the motorcycle may stay on with the emergency light switch in the off position. Investigation has discovered the cause to be a short in the main wiring harness at the rear of the motorcycle. The location is under the radio box floor plate, by the siren amp mounting plate. The short is caused by the auxiliary battery?s main positive cable and the rear emergency light wiring rubbing and chafing on the ?T? corners of the siren amplifier mounting plate harness securing tab.
