Resetting of your ABS

This is just some info I want to give to the ABS beemers outthere. a While ago I had problems with my 2001 R 1150 GS ABS lights flickering alternatively. Whent to North Side BMW and ask what the problem was , they said they must plug it in to there blikbrein and see what the problem is . Price was my first question - R 150 just to check, so of I go
I checked my tail light bulb but everything is OK. Then I came across a site explaining how to reset the ABS. I was as happy as can be.

1) Turn ignition off.
2) Remove the seat.
3) Locate the diagnostics plug behind the battery.
(It's for diagnostics so is not connected to anything).
4) Connect an end of wire to pin 2 and the other end to pin 4 .
5) The numbers is at the back of the plug
6) Turn ignition on. Note that the two ABS lights continue flashing alternately.
7) Hold ABS button down for 8 seconds.
The bottom ABS light should stay on, the top one off.
Release the ABS button.
8) If the reset is successful, both ABS lights come on.

If you didn't count to 8 or your ground is not good, then the top ABS light stays off. Start again and/or try pressing the ABS button before turning ignition on.

I hope these D I Y helps to save some money and you get to know your bike more

Cheers :roll: :lol:
