hi all went for a run with the wife then the yellow warning light came on low pressure in tyres stopped at garage and put some air in tyres they were both
low on psi rode 40mls back home fine I checked the hand book and it said a red light comes up when you have low tyre pressure
confused is it red or is it yellow by the way its a 66 plate bmw r 1200 rs se with 2.300 mls on

Red triangle for low tire pressure.
Yellow triangle for a sensor problem.
Page 43 in the Riders Manual covers it.

Did the dash also show -- -- instead of the tire pressure?

Sorry Lee but I think there is no issue here - yellow - tpm warning/not working is the static, before you ride - All seems ok to me.
Nothing to worry about
page 44 - once you were above the speed setting to activate

Yellow triangle is a pressure warning - working correctly I guess as you added air to change from low pressure
Red warning would be a deflation emergency warning

It is a two stage warning, yellow for low, red for out of range.

Pages 112 to 114 give better explanation and working range for normal/yellow/red tolerances

(Note - difference between "shows yellow" - Lee, and "flashes yellow" - though I'm picking up a difference between my US 2015 manual and the manual of Dave H....)
