Parking lights stay on

Got any questions about the BMW's R1200RT/R1250RT's onboard audio, Bluetooth or the Electrical system?

Parking lights stay on

Post by Nick Evans »

Has anyone come across this, my parking lights stay on after the keys are out. If I don't unplug the headlamp cluster they will eventually flatten the battery (after a few days). I have had the tank off and metered the output from the ZFE, the appropriate pin is live all the time. GS-911 does not report a fault, but it wouldn't since it only works with the ignition on (so the lights are supposed to be on)

An update...sometimes they do go off with the key as they are supposed to, only for them to come back on a few minutes later. I have a second hand ZFE which I will attempt to swap in, sounds like a software nightmare though.
