K1200S will not recognize ESA calibration

<< < (3/3)

StephanT:
ok, let me be clear about this...

there is NO WAY for us to tell whether you have ESA...  all we can see is if the "ESA with HALL sensor" bit is set in the ZFE configuration...

whether your bike is equipped with ESA, whether with HALL or potentiometer, can only be seen from the Vehicle Order, which we cannot decrypt at this point... which is why we are NOT telling you in an Autoscan or any other place that you do or do NOT have ESA...

We can however tell you if you have ESA with a HALL sensor... and we also do pop up an error warning if you want to do ESA calibration but do NOT have a HALL-type ESA...

best,
Stephan

hi guys

first things first, before trying any further calibration.
On the k models have a look by the front spring strut, there is a cable running to the strut, follow that cable towards the control units.There is a tie strap[cable tie] at the parra lever, approximately 10 cm from the strut bolt, the cable loves breaking off there and if it is broken no calibration will be able to be done and does not always store a fault code.

Now to check that cable you must: make a small slice in the cable casing where the cable tie was and give each wire a tug individually.

What tends to happen is that with the movement of the strut it breaks the wires inside the casings.

so I recommend checking that out first.
once repaired, try calibrating again.
let us know how it goes.

regards

thanks for the post, however this is not the issue. rapala posted that although he has ESA, we do NOT show that in the ZFE calibration and when he then tries a calibration, the GS-911 tells him that there is NO "ESA with Hall sensor". As I explained all we can tell is whether there is an "ESA with HALL sensor", and if there is not one, that does NOT mean that there is no ESA with potentiometer..

 there is just no way for us to tell from the ZFE data (only place we know of, that shows ESA in general is in the Vehicle Order - which we cannot read at this point)

DeusExMaxima:
I have a 2008 k1200s, non ESA. Can ESA be retrofitted by installing ESA shocks and ESA button and then activated using gs911?
