GS-911 / Re: Gear indicator goes blank on a 2017 F800gsa after changing gearing

There is an old thread on this on another forum. It is peculiar to the 2017 bikes when BMW went to throttle by wire. Changing the final drive ratio brings on an error. There was no solution to the issue that I recall.

GS-911 / Gear indicator goes blank on a 2017 F800gsa after changing gearing

« Last post by gplume on March 27, 2025, 04:46:14 AM »

Hi all. Have been living with this problem for a long time! Several years back I changed the gearing on my F800 gsa dropping one tooth on the coutershaft sprocket from 16 to 15. This makes the bike more rideable off road, and still ok on the road. Ever since doing this the gear indicator goues out when running in 6th gear for a short while. Fault fode on the scan tool is 4482(0x1182). Description is Gear selector sensor, implausable signal or value. Basically, I believe the ECU expects a certain engine rpm and a particular wheel speed that has now changed due to the gearing change.
Does anyone know if it is possible to use the gs911 tool to tell/teach the ecu the new values with the reduced gearing are ok?
I have lived with this problem for years, but during a recent x-country trip it became a problem when my clutch switch got dirty. Since the ecu did not know the gear, it did not recognize neutral, and would not start. Inhad to reset all codes to allow the engine to start while out in the middle of nowhere.
Any suggestions appreciated!
Giff

Wild.  I tend not to go to McDonald's for help with my dry cleaning, but this place runs different I s'pose.  Carry on, then!

You clearly have a lot to learn, especially how to fit in let alone that the issue for Stanley may be wiring, electronic or mechanical & Stanley was asking for advice from people which was the right thing to do & your comparison ludicrous

Stanley welcome to the forum, ask what ever you want, we will attempt to assist you

consider posting on a forum for mechanical troubleshooting, like https://www.s1000r.co.uk/

this is the forum for the diag tool itself, not the motorcycle you may be attaching it to.  the obligation here will go only as far as "is it properly reading codes?  yes?  okay good luck"

+1 on Schuppi comment plus

"the obligation here will go only as far as "is it properly reading codes?"

Mandating forum & user obligations ?  unbelievable

 "is it properly reading codes?  yes?  okay good luck"

Never!
This forum will help.
The best way is to submit a scan with all relevant data.
Then it's just as important to use a repair manual.
Now maybe a detailed description of the problem, and someone will try to help.
This is how we did it a year ago:
