MIne has been doing this since I bought my bike used , and it was already 5 years old then. It´s only the rear and only does it when driving at higher speeds or longer periods of time. Short trips don´t seem to trip it. |

Brothers 07 k1200gt's sensors have acted up for a few years. Sometimes working sometimes not. He's going to replace both at the next service. |

Zitat von spainy im Beitrag #16 Based on a rebuild video on YouTube showing how to replace the TPMS battery, this makes me notice the following.... 1. The battery is "welded" into the TPMS. Removable, but it's possible a unit has a poorly connected battery. 2. Presuming the TPMS is only active when the wheel is moving (switching it on?) perhaps high G forces can cause issues with defective "on trigger" switches in the circuit.

Zitat von Big Al im Beitrag #19 As far as I know that's correct. The warning triangle is used for more than low tire pressure so I would not be comfortable covering it.

Hi Philbuck, Your suggestion got me searching and I found a Shrader TPMS supplier in Australia, for anyone down this way who is interested. I haven't compared the $89 Au$ price to BMW prices but I'd be sure its cheaper. They are available at - |

Sorry I should have done more research before posting. The guy I spoke to at - www.tpms.com.au advised that Shrader TPMS fits the R1200RS but I'm not so sure as he said the part number Shrader use is the last part of the BMW part no. I can't find a match at Motobins or Max BMW. I spoke to him again and gave him more details about my 2016 RS and he suggested Shrader part no. 7653494 is what I need but he doesn't stock it. Searching for this part brings up up a different shaped sensor - https://catalogue.schradertpms.com/en-US...7653494%20.html So if anyone can advise what Shrader TPMS I should be chasing I'd appreciate it. |

Zitat von Joff im Beitrag #24 What about the BMW bike software? Will it automatically upgrade to the new sensor or will it require reprogramming? I'm from Brisbane so please keep me posted as I will be coming up for a replacement myself in the not too distant future  |

Zitat von Bikepirate im Beitrag #25Zitat von Joff im Beitrag #24 From what I read in my R1200 BMW factory service manual DVD a few years ago, the bikes computer will have to be programmed by a franchised dealer for the bike to recognize the new sensor device. If there are any aftermarket tools that can also do this, I haven't heard about them. I am pretty sure that my GS-911 won't do it.

Zitat von Richard230 im Beitrag #26 There are aftermarket wake up tools. I've seen a few posts where people were able to go for a 20 mile ride or longer to wake up a new sensor. Lee |
