ezCAN / Re: Hexcan drain battery??
« Last post by WernerM on September 17, 2025, 10:52:25 AM »
Hi there,

Thank you for reaching out.

Does the ezCAN go into sleep mode a few seconds after the ignition is turned off? If the Green LED on the ezCAN turns off, this tells us the ezCAN has gone to sleep. In the sleep state, the ezCAN power draw would be inconsequential.

Were you able to test for any more draw with the bike turned off?

Lastly, how is the bike stored? Litium batteries can misbehave (oversimplification, I know) or fail prematurely if exposed to sub 0°C (32°F). It's recommended to keep these batteries between 0-25°C when in use and charging.

Kind regards,
Werner.

When using GS911 through browser & you click on service functions it simply gets the functions from cloud

You should be able to update GS911 firmware on the MAC using a web browser & do service resets & service functions via the cloud, I assume the MAC is connected to the internet

The answer to using the GS911 PC App on the MAC is to set up a Virtual Machine, see the options here

GS-911 / GS911 and the MacBook
« Last post by MondoRich on September 14, 2025, 01:46:37 PM »
Good afternoon I’ve searched this topic and it seems to have been discussed 7 years ago and I wonder if this has progressed.

I have an old pc laptop that is nearly dead and I connect using the USB to my 911 WiFi and do autoscans and crucially reset the service reminder. The laptop is dying though and the 911 is now the ONLY reason I still have it.

On my newish MacBook I can connect to the 911 by WiFi and run autoscans but I can’t seem to:
1. Reset the service reminder
2. Update the 911 with new software

I’m not having much success with the WiFi utility program on my Mac, it opens but just sits there - is that where the answer lies or is the 911 still REALLY a pc focussed tool?

Thank you very much for any thoughts or help you can offer.

Kind regards

Rich

GS-911 / question for the forum - K1200s abs controller not communicating
« Last post by dballari@gmail.com on September 11, 2025, 07:13:12 PM »
Hi - new member here - i own a BMW k1200s - recently i was flushing/bleeding the abs module. During the procedure, I had to unplug the electrical connector leading from the canbus system to the abs control unit (the unit that is connected to the pump) to temporarily turn off the brake servos. When i reconnected the electrical connector to the control unit, I no longer had any communication  through the control unit (no abs brake functions, no brake lights, no speedometer, etc.). It does not appear that i damaged any of the pins or the connector.  I believe I may have left the ignition in the "on" position when i was disconnecting the connector, so perhaps this may have created some issues.

My initial steps were to disconnect the battery and tie the battery leads together to see whether that would help reset the abs control unit - no luck unfortunately

Wondering whether anyone has any suggestions as well as thoughts on how to figure-out what is causing the communication failure ?

Also, anyone familiar with the connector and which pins control which functions (including ground and power?) - thanks in advance
