Help - screen stuck in up position
2012 R1200RT SE on 1st day of tour in Spain and screen has got stuck in the up position, right in line of sight so a bit of a safety concern and no wind blast to keep cool

Re: Help - screen stuck in up position
A BMW recovery technician told me that the switches don't like heat.
Try covering the switch and/or put the bike in the shade.
