Dip headlight tell tale - 2022 1250RT LE

[Ribcracker]

I’ve only had the bike a week, but noticed that the dipped beam tell tale on the left of the tft is not always lit, despite the dipped beam coming on automatically when the engine is started.
Can someone explain? Or have I got a faulty tell tale light?

[Stu]

Has it got an A in it?

[Ribcracker]

An A?
There's nothing displayed in the place where the dipped beam tell tale should be.
The Aux light symbol shows, as does the high beam symbol, but no dipped beam.
I thought it should illuminate when the dipped beam is lit, ie all the time the bike is running.

Like so!

The A means it's in automatic mode

When it's off like so then you have turned the lights on

You cannot turn the lights off they are either on or in automatic mode

Thanks Stu,
So, if I'm understanding this right...

If on mnaual mode they are on all the time
and in automatic mode they can switch themselves off in daylight? Leaving just the LED markers on?

[Stu]

Yes that's exactly right

[Ribcracker]

Thanks for clarifying, Stu.
I was under the impression if the headlight was on, the tell tale was supposed to be on, like in a car.

Yes it is a bit of an odd behaviour
