Odometer ICE?

It was a bit cold riding to work today. Whilst trying not to breathe out, and continually wiping mist from the mirrors, I noticed the odometer had gone off and looked blank :eek:

It was dark, and the LCD figures don't show well, and my visor is misted up (why can't you buy something really useful, a heated visor :?: ) it might be me, so I peer at it whilst the 'bike veers all over the road, bouncing off parked cars and roadsigns :lol: And see the last couple of digits come on, and flicker.

Great I think, washing it on Sunday has wrecked the dash, off to the dealer on Saturday.

Then it came back on, so I carried on. (cursing silently, as now they won't swap it out, the fault needs to be all the time :angry: )

A while later, it has got a bit lighter, and it happens again.

Now I can see the digits, and it is displaying an error code 39. No EFI light, and it is still going ok, WTF is #39??

Then the odometer comes back.

Then it hits me: 39 is the temperature in Fahrenheit :eek: (I confirm with a few button presses) the dash must be in some sort of cycling mode, it must be the switch full of water or something.

When I got to work it occurred to me that there might be some pointless ice warning mode (like I don't know it's cold when the gear lever is solid and my visor mists up in a second :S )

I RTFM'd and it mentions ICE mode, but doesn't say what happens. Is this it?
 
On the B11 dash, you get a snowflake on the instrument panel. I suspect you're getting something similar.
 
That is what I'm hoping. Quite distressing really, when you have a natural fear that the electronics will pack up any second ;)

It wouldn't be too hard for the word ICE to appear if they really wanted a warning.
 
What model?

Never been out below 0*C, so no recon here. I absolutely HATE the cold months. :!:
 
Sorry, Breva.

It didn't do it today, so either it has dried out or it was the cold weather.
 
Read your post once again, and suddenly I understood.. :mrgreen:

This is a guess, but of course Nero is right here.
I've got the same in the car; whatever the mode the car computer is in, it will display a warning when the temperature is below +4*C.
As said before, too cold for riding a bike in that sort of weather.
To me, at least. :)
