What is wrong

Issue:

On certain motorcycles, the reverser control unit may not have been sealed properly. As a result, water could enter the control unit and cause it to corrode. If this happens, the control unit could short circuit.

Note: This problem could cause the reverse function not to work.

Safety Risk:

A short circuit can create the risk of a fire.

Corrective Actions:

BMW Motorrad will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your motorcycle to a dealership to replace the reverser control unit relay and related parts.
