Morning all,

Five minutes into my ride this morning, the following warning symbol appeared on the cluster of my R9T.

Late 2019 GS Urban. Riden regularly, i.e. most days.

I have checked the headlight, sidelight, taillight, brake light, and signals all good.
The battery cranks well and reads suitable voltage.
Oil and fluid levels are correct.

Before I strip the battery out and complete a drop test, is there anything else I should be checking first?

Best,

Andy

Hi Chris,

I will double-check the parking bulb and the connection to the main bulb.

Everything looks good, but I am now mentally prepared (double expresso) to go in, break down all the connectors, and apply a spot of dielectric grease for good measure.

Thanks for all the replies


Good spot. I will run a continuity and resistance test.
.

Nothing obvious has turned up yet. I have ordered a replacement main/dip and parking bulb and will try swapping those out next.
