Fixed a stuck ESA rear shock (preload) on 2005 K1200S

<< < (2/5) > >>

durinkos:
Good day!

I have a question for developers who are present in this forum, as the heldesk not help me !. Work is a version which is able to calibrate ESA chassis without HALL sensor ??? I bought a GS911 only for calibration rear shock. To this day, it does not work and I am very angry! You lie to customers.  >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:(

Please reply

durinkos:
So. Firstly, I would like to apologize developers and forum administrator on hex.code for my very bad post ...

Calibrate as instructed by trickflow really works on models of without hall sensor. Calibration me not successful due to the gearbox jammed in the suspensions. After manual gearbox shake it possible to calibration run and even as instructed by trickflow.

Hello, this is my first post. I’m in the UK and have a recently acquired 2005 R1200RT, which is not currently on the road. I have a GS-911Blu and am on a learning curve, though I have already successfully carried out the pressure test following replacement of the brake fluid and corrected a non-working screen by simply running the calibration utility.

Could I ask for some guidance on the ESA 1 suspension, picking up on the previous post by trickflow?

The situation with my bike was the same as reported by trickflow: the instrument panel responded to the commands from the ESA button for damping and preload, but nothing seemed to be happening on the bike. Performing the manual suspension test described in the BMW repair manual confirmed this: no noticeable change in damper stiffness or rear ride height.

Selecting suspension calibration in the ZFE menu returns: “No ESA that can be calibrated is fitted to this motorcycle”. I understand that this is because the GS-911 does not currently support ESA 1 with potentiometer position sensor, but I used trickflow’s procedure to have the GS-911 software accept the presence of the ESA suspension (front and rear calibration commands no longer greyed out).

A few seconds after clicking on “Calibrate front suspension” an error message is displayed: “Negative response from controller: sub function not supported by controller or invalid format”.

A few seconds after clicking on “Calibrate rear suspension” an error message is displayed: “Front calibration stopped by user”.

The calibration page does warn that if calibration is interrupted, the ZFE will log a fault and disable changes to the ESA using the ESA button. I didn’t knowingly interrupt it, but this is indeed the current situation: there is now no response from the screen to the ESA switch for damping or preload – though there is no fault code visible.

I’ve tried repeating the procedure a few times, with the same result each time.

Durinkos seems to have sorted his by shaking the rear suspension unit. I’m not sure what he did, but in my case the unit is not jammed: applying 12 volts to the (disconnected) blue connector on the rear mudguard causes the rear suspension preload adjustment to motor up and down smoothly, so preload changes ought to work at least.

Does anyone have any ideas as to how I can at least restore the bike to its previous condition (display screen responding to the button) and preferably restore the suspension to working order?

The autoscan report is below. This does not list the ESA suspension but I have an earlier report from before I started looking at the suspension, which is the same; I don’t know whether or not this is not significant.

Thank you for any help you can offer.

Hello, good morning and welcome :)

There is a not registered ESA on ZFE-HighZFE type: ZFE-High .
This is the main unit for diagnosis over the CAN. Did you change this ZFE?
Think that is a dealers job, register this function to the ZFE online. Than you are
able to read this unit.

Old goat:
Thank you for your comments Schuppi.
I bought the bike from a friend, who had it from nearly new and did over 100,000 miles on it commuting to work. He never carried a passenger or varied the load and most of the running was in traffic on the motorway, so he would not have needed to change the ESA settings (I’m sure he would have played with it when he first had the bike though). He had latterly started to wonder if the ESA was working (How do you tell, he asked…) but did nothing about it apart from replacing the control switch, which was no longer positive in action. This made no difference, and anyway the screen always responded to the switch even though the system didn’t. I’m as sure as can be that the ZFE is the original one.
I’ve seen in the BMW repair manual that the BMW diagnostic tool includes a check on the ESA settings, so like you wonder whether this is going to be something for a dealer to do.
However, from the earlier posts, it seemed that Hexcode might be working on covering this early ESA system, so I’m still hoping for that.
