Title: BMW R18 Bagger aux lights TFT icon
Post by: Fleabag on May 08, 2024, 06:15:47 AM

The bagger is pre-wired for aux driving lights. I assembled the parts and installed the same lights as the Transcontinental, which plugged into a connector behind the fairing. The bagger also has a two-function mode switch that will turn the aux driving lights on or off. The Transcontinental has a light icon engraved on this switch, but on the bagger, there is no engraving switch but the switch does work to turn on the aux lights.

I'm looking for assistance in enabling the bagger's TFT display to show a green light icon when the aux driving lights are turned on. The Transcontinental already has this feature, and I was hoping it would magically work on the bagger. I assume something needs to be programmed or turned on, and I was hoping the GS911 could do it.

Hi Fleabag

Thank you for reaching out. We're going to need a bit more information - can you send through an autoscan here (save the text file and paste the contents here) or send this through to support@hexgs911.com. With the controller information, we'll be able to better determine whether this is something we've already looked at or plan to look at at a later stage.

Kind regards
Ruan

Is this what you need?  BTW, there are three separate TFT icons for lights. High beams, Driving Lights which I don’t have on my US bike and aux headlights which is the one I am interested in. Thanks for your help.

Thanks for implementing the TFT icon for the aux lights. You guys rock!

On the bagger, even though the physical switch and wiring harness are there, the bike’s ECU/TFT doesn’t “know” it should monitor that circuit and display the icon.

What is the procedure for activating the AUX Light functionality and icon on the R18 Model B TFT?  I've tried several times to implement this functionality; however, I only see the presence of 12 Volts on the Aux Lights pre-wiring within the initial start up of the bike, which last for approximately 5 seconds.  The Aux Switch doesn't seem to function and I don't see the Aux Light icon on the TFT.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
