Tire pressure monitor

maxscycle · Sep 15, 2019

Bikes
2014 R12GS with TPM
2017 R12GS with TPM.
I swapped the tires/wheels assembly between the two bikes.
(Why does not matter)
Everything bolted up fine.
ABS works fine.
But the tire pressure does not register on either bike. And a few miles later the yellow triangle low tire press warning light comes on.
Is there a fix that is garage friendly, without going to the dealer to reset?
Thanks

You definitely have to tell the bike about the different sensors before they'll talk to one another.

If not a dealer, maybe a GS-911 or the like can do it? I have the Motoscan app that uses a Bluetooth dongle that plugs into the diagnostic connector. If you go that route and have a round connector, you'll need an adapter cable too. AFIK the 2017.5 and up bikes have the regular rectangular OBDII connector, earlier ones have the round one.

GS-911 does this very easily if the sensors are awake, you may need a wake up tool. https://www.amazon.com/VXDAS-EL-504...coding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=3SHVX4FBRC4EVQFGY8V3 . The bike can have 2 different sensors front/rear (so you can swap the wheel out) but bike needs to learn each sensor.
