Got any questions about the BMW's R1200RT/R1250RT's onboard audio, Bluetooth or the Electrical system?

Ignition key losing code

Post by smileymiley »

While I've been in Sunny  8) Sevilla, the RT was in to check why the central locking & alarm wasn't working with the key fob.
The key apparently had lost it's code with the bike! Apparently if the system can't pair each other it gives the bike a new code. This means the key is not recognised & has to be reset to the bike. The BMW technician says its a lottery for which bike does this or not. Some are quite susceptible while others never give any trouble.
Vini, Vidi, Velcro....... I came, I saw, I stuck around.
