Did the dash reset itself when this happened (i.e. clock, trip and TC/ABS settings)?

As I understand it, the r.SW part of the message refers to "reset software" and is triggered when the ECU detects a voltage lower than a predetermined "safe" level. It then disconnects the ECU and dash to protect them, which is why the dash resets.

The low voltage could be a tired battery, poor or loose battery/earth connections or, as in my case, an unplugged relay. As you say, hopefully, your new battery will sort it.

Like Mr G, I'm also running a Motobatt, which has performed faultlessly.
