Adaptive Headlight Failure Message

[motornut]

For trivia the adaptive head lights are allowed in Europe, Canada and China to make the lights less intrusive to the drivers coming at you. I have read that it is used on autos but I don't know when it started.
It is being considered by the NHTSA, but probably won't happen in my life time.

Sorry if I missed it, but what model/year are you having the issue with? I have a 2020 R1250 GS Adventure with an adaptive light.

What I know... There is a photocell in my TFT that determines the amount of sunlight and turns the headlight on at dusk or cloudiness depending on the amount of ambient light which would correlate to the timing of your error.

The RT doesn't do this, the headlight is always on and I've never seen a difference in the intensity nor is there any mention of this in the manual so I believe it's not the case on the RT as you state for your GS.

We have a new headlight on its way to dealer. When they receive it we will set up a time to have old one out and in with the new. We'll see if that is the fix.
