Not of earth shattering importance but a nuisance. I disconnected the power to the radio on my K1100LT. When I reconnected it doesnt work. The lights come on and there is a number (242) on the little screen and the speakers hiss so its nearly there. I put in the code I was given when I got the bike, but no change. I'm assuming I have the wrong code. Is there any way of finding out the correct code or bypassing it? Any other suggestions?

There's a way to get the wrong code to quit displaying so you can enter the right code.  I can't recall the procedure but I believe it has something to do with holding the ST/Band button for a few seconds.  I'll see if I can find the owners manual tomorrow.

The cheapest thing on a BMW is the nut that connects the handlebars to the seat.

I went and found the manual.  The erase the incorrect code press and hold the BAND button until the numbers disappear.  You can then try your code again.  It should be a four digit code.  Way back you could get the codes from the dealer.  I'm not sure if that is still available.

Yes thanks for that. Holding down the band button cleared it and the code I have worked so all good now.

So now when we hear Beethoven's 5th belting out we can expect to see Phil any tic of the clock.  What a Face
