Computer reset bmw
Depending on the model you may need to take it to a dealer, as some need a special tool to reset the computer and it is very expensive.

How can I tell if battery discharge is due to battery or alternator
What year and model is your BMW.
How old is your battery? More than 3-4 years, may be past best by date.
Once running does it keep running? Lights work?
Does the battery go dead if the bike sits for a week or more?
Was it kept charged when not in use?
If yes to the above, battery is probably no good.
If the alternator isn't working, your bike would run for a while after charging your battery, then die. The lights should become brighter as the rev's are increased from idle.

BMW R 1150 R surging
Bad choke or stuck butterfly valve in carb. Could also be in need of valve adjustment. The only other reason would be because the timing is off.

Need circuit diagram for ARLEC 15e 6-24Volt 15Amp Electronic battery charger OR their later model BC58
I can't find a diagram.
The small potentiometer on the control board likely serves as an adjustable component to fine-tune specific parameters. Here are some possibilities:
Voltage Regulation:
The potentiometer might control the output voltage. By adjusting it, you can set the desired charging voltage for different battery types (e.g., 6V or 12V).
Current Limit Adjustment:
It could be used to set the maximum charging current. Adjusting the potentiometer allows you to limit the charging current based on the battery's capacity and condition.
Sensitivity or Threshold:
Some potentiometers act as sensitivity controls. For example, it might adjust the threshold at which the charger switches between charging and maintenance modes.
Setting the Potentiometer:
Without the specific circuit diagram or detailed information about your charger, I recommend the following general steps:
Observe the Potentiometer:
Identify the potentiometer on the control board. Note its position and any markings (if present).
Consult the User Manual:
Check the user manual or operating instructions. It might provide guidance on adjusting the potentiometer.
Trial and Error:
If no specific instructions are available, start with the potentiometer set to its mid-position.
Gradually adjust it while monitoring the charger's behavior (e.g., charging current, voltage).
Observe how the charger responds to changes in the potentiometer setting.
Fine-tune it based on your specific battery type and desired charging characteristics.
Remember that precise adjustments depend on the charger's design and the battery you're charging.

What is the length of lift cables on a 1993 model 2693 hilo camper and any info on what after market part to use ? thanks
The lift cables on a 1993 model 2693 Hilo camper are 30 feet,2 3/4 inches long and fit the standard height lift of 11 feet 8 inches high to the top of the overhead. The lift uses two cables. According to a Hi- Lo camper travel trailer forum, cable replacement is basically the same on all years and models, with the main difference being the length of the cables from model to model. You can use a cable cut chart to find what cable length you need for your camper, and you'll need to know your year, model name, and box (body) length: Lift cables typically wear out after three to five years, so it's important to replace them as needed and keep them regularly maintained.
