My 2003 R1200CLC recently quit running as I was traveling down the interstate. I connected my GS911 wifi to try and find out what went wrong, but I get the error message that says the ignition is not on. It gives a couple of other reasons why it might not be working, but I can't remember them right now. I've used the GS911 on this bike and on my other bike so I know how to do it. No fuses are blown. Any ideas why this is happening? I'm pretty sure the fuel pump is the reason it died, it's failed in the past, but I would like to know why the GS911 isn't able to run a scan.

Just check that there are switched/unswitched voltages at the diags socket before we consider anything else

Well the GS911 powers up. Is that what you mean? Or do I need to put a meter on the pins at the bike?

If the GS911 is powered up then clearly there is unswitched power but it may well be a fault causing lack of switched power at the socket so yes put a multimeter on the socket to check that pin (10, GeGr wire), also can you tell me if the GS911 socket is a little loose on the GS911 body ?
-
I can't check it now as I'm at work. Tomorrow I'll check things out and post back. I'll hook it to the other bike as well.

Well I don't know what's different from yesterday, but it's working fine now. Possibly I didn't have the GS911 connection secured correctly.

Ah well good to hear it is working, you did not answer my question re whether the socket was loose in the GS911 body though ;D
-
Sorry. I didn't notice any looseness in the unit. It didn't show any faults, even though the fuel pump is not working. I'm guessing that is because it's not a canbus system.

No worries, on the 650GS the BMS monitors the current to the fuel pump and if it is above or below the right range of values is generates a fault but I dont know if that is the same with your model. The the plug, I asked as I managed to break one ;D, sounds like your is OK though
