I can confirm coding out multifunction light is possible.
NO NEED FOR ADDITIONAL HARDWARE.
The red function of the multi function indicators, can be turned off via coding.
No way to have them working, then deactivated only when indicating yet though.
I gather USA bikes don't have the Red Lights on the indicators - but it might be features of a different software iteration....

Last post by botus - July 23, 2026, 01:54:56 PMnot enough voltage ?
it takes a while and drains the battery heating up the strip on and off
add decent power supply keeping volts up (BM cars mandate 15 volts just to stop fiddly fingers), the bike's were less fussy - but new feature on the tool - they have enabled one to alter the nag point of when its insufficient....
get it above 13.5volts and try again - I have had it fight you

Last post by botus - July 23, 2026, 01:51:16 PMgenuine or pattern parts,
are they working,
can you try the rear's on the front and vice versa
if non genuine it might be they pull a different current....
if you are confident its not you - send the logs of all the work to HEx and pose the question....

Last post by miamicycles - July 22, 2026, 06:16:05 PMHello,
I Need some insight, I have just replaced the fuel strip on a 08 K1200S K40, and when trying to do calibration process, it keeps saying that there is an error with calibration process. The strip is new and dry.
could there be something wrong on the bike side?

Technical / COMBI LED RETROFIT - PERSISTEN...
Last post by Julio - July 22, 2026, 06:07:09 AMGood day, I have a problem that is driving me crazy.
I installed LED indicators on a 2017 S1000XR.
Naturally, this would throw the "LAMPS" error as it was coded for incandescent bulbs.
When I did the LED Indicator retrofit via GS911, the error is now "LAMPF".
Upon checking, the rear lights stopped having the open circuit error, but the front lights are still displaying open circuit errors.
Weird, it's as if the LED retrofit coding only worked for the rear lights and not the front?
Any ideas on what to do and check?

Last post by Guilherme - July 20, 2026, 08:55:05 PMHi Botus,
I know the argentinian strip sensor. I presented this solution for the people of GS-Forum in Germany and many coleagues there are using with good results, despite the low accuracy.
The prices are quite the same. And I like the reliability of the float system....

ezCAN / ezCAN Mojave Fuse Settings
Last post by key - July 17, 2026, 11:20:10 PMHello all. I'm running an ezCAN Mojave as a means to power an auxiliary brake/taillight on a 2025 BMW R12 nineT. Taillight is connected to the ezCAN yellow circuit; all other circuits are unused and have been disabled.
The default fuse setting for the yellow circuit was originally 5A, and at that setting everything worked as expected. There was, and still is, a 1 or 2 second delay between the illumination of the OEM lights and the auxiliary taillight when I power up the bike, but I assume that's normal behavior for the ezCAN. Please advise if not.
Back to the fuse settings: ezCAN's diagnostic function shows that the taillight uses a peak amperage of about 0.5A, so based on that I decided to reduce the default fuse setting from 5A to 4A. After doing so the taillight no longer powers up unless I power-cycle the bike, at which point the tail/brake light works on the second attempt. Seems that powering the bike on/off resets something within the ezCAN which then allows it to function normally. Not sure what that might be other than the fuse protection setting. If I change 4A back to 5A, the problem goes away.
This might be analogous to when I complain to the doctor about how it hurts when I poke myself in the eye and he tells me the cure is to just stop doing that. It's not really a problem to have to use the 5A fuse setting, but why does a low-amperage device like an LED taillight need such a high setting to operate correctly? The taillight wiring harness uses conductors that are as fine as frog hair, so I'd prefer to not set the fuse any higher than necessary. Anybody encountered anything like this before?

Last post by gixxerchuck - July 17, 2026, 10:58:59 AMQuote from: WayneC on July 16, 2026, 02:34:38 AMWelcome to the forumAh, ok. Thanks didn't know that. It's for an S1000RR.
Menu items are specific to each model so a list is not really feasible
I notice you did not state your bike model so it would be impossible for anyone to assist you
Do hex provide a manual as did not get one and cannot see anything on their site. Also took me 4 months to get approved on the forum 😂
