Engine electronics
General warning light
lights up yellow.
Engine electronics
symbol is displayed.
Fault in the engine electronics.
In exceptional cases, the
engine stops and can no
longer be started. Otherwise,
the engine runs in emergency
operating mode.
You can continue to ride, but
bear in mind that the usual
engine output is not available.
• Have the fault remedied as
soon as possible by a spe-
cialist workshop, preferably
an authorised BMW motor-
cycle dealer.
Engine oil pressure
General warning light lights
up red.
Engine oil pressure symbol
is displayed.
Insufficient engine oil pressure.
The "engine oil pressure" warn-
ing indicates that there is no oil
pressure or that the oil pressure
in the lubricating oil circuit is too
low; under no circumstances is it
to be regarded as fulfilling the
function of an oil gauge. Once
the oil pressure has built up
1 – 2 seconds after the engine
start, the warning indicator must
go out.
If the "engine oil pressure" warn-
ing is displayed while the motor-
cycle is being ridden, take
account of the traffic situation
and:
• Disengage the gear.
• Press the kill switch.
• Bring the motorcycle safely
to a halt.
• Check the engine oil level.
Alongside an insufficient
engine oil level, other
problems in the engine can
lead to the "engine oil pres-
sure" warning. Continuing to
ride in these cases can cause
engine damage.
If the "engine oil pressure"
warning is issued, do not con-
tinue to ride, even though the
engine oil level might be
correct.c
• Have the fault remedied by a
specialist workshop, prefer-
ably an authorised
BMW motorcycle dealer.
