Fuel Strips (Film type fuel sensor)

<< < (2/15) > >>

Websterize:
2009 R1200R. One fuel-strip replacement. Got low-fuel light after filling up and erratic onboard computer readouts of range and fuel-level bars. Most aggravating was the false-positive low-fuel lamp. I use the tripmeter exclusively, ignoring OBC. Possible to code the ZFE to ignore the OBC?

mogu83:
2007 R1200R   WB10398087ZS25141   No failures     But seems to stay on 'Full' longer than it should when I fill it all the way up.

Good luck with this.

INlinuxdude:
2005 R1200RT . bought used about 1.5 years ago, and my fuel strip started going out a couple weeks ago (it is currently intermittent).  I plan on bypassing it with resistors as described in the following thread (unless BMW comes out with a real solution, or someone figures out how to retrofit a float - which doesn't seem likely at this point)...
