    I have a parking light bulb that is burned out for the very first time in any of my last 4 Beemers! Anyone know how I can access this one on a 2010 R1200RT? I have big hands and manage reaching my head light and high beam lights ok, but, does this require taking off my dashboard? If you have a...

    Replacement of low beam bulb on a 2016 BMW RT

    My left low beam is burnt out at 13,000 miles and less than 3 years of use. There does not seem to be a good tutorial on this. Is it easier to replace the bulb if you remove the speaker?

    Light bulb replacement - recommendations

    Hello again you Oilheads. Well....seems as though I'm full swing again with myriad of projects with Der Bimmer. It's been awhile, so perhaps my bike just felt the need to bring me back to the garage to keep my mechanic skills fresh. Seems like one project begets another and before you know...

    2008 K1200S Low Beam Failure

    Just bought an '08 K1200S after several years of looking and I had a burned out low beam head lamp bulb. Easy enough to remove and replace the obviously toasted H7 bulb; however, the new bulb also did not work and I still got the LAMPF! warning when I powered on the bike. I swapped the bulb...

    Inexpensive replacement for 1991 R100GS headlight assembly

    The H4 low beam was burned out, so I attempted to change the bulb. But I'm afraid the wire spring clip that holds the H4 in place broke loose from the socket. It appears I may have broken the white plastic bulb socket where the clip is attached. I think it might be possible to remove the...

    Low beam bulb replacement for 2015 RT

    I think I just blew out my first light bulb. It seems I've read about replacing them somewhere in the forum, but I don't find anything when I try searching with key words. The manual instruction seems fairly worthless.First, it doesn't mention that it's a no-see-um affair. I removed the cover...

    Changing low beam bulbs on a 2008 RT??

    Riding in the mountains a few nights ago both of my low beams went out, luckily I have low mounted lights on the forks and the high beam did keep working. The following day I removed the left hand bulb, put an OHM meter on it and it was fine so I put it back in place and it started working...

    Low beam headlight 2014 RTW

    The low beam headlight on my 2014 1200RTW burnt out. The rider’s manual contains illustrations on actually replacing the bulb but no guidance on how to actually get to that point. Any suggestions - disassembly?
