• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    Radio on mute and can not get it on

    Thanks for all the replies. I had not tried removing the GPS. Unfortunately that did not make a difference. I saw the speaker voltage test procedure, but didn't want to disassemble half the bike to find it. That is my next step, I may ride without a radio until we have a rainy day.

    Radio on mute and can not get it on

    The radio is indicating the station and the signal from the station showing the artist and the song that is being played. It would appear that the radio is working but is not sending the sound to the speakers, which as you stated "the radio could be bad"

    Radio on mute and can not get it on

    I have connected my ipod and my XM radio to the trunk connection with no results also. The reference to Press the mode button for 3 seconds after the ignition switch is turned off is to listen to the radio in an auxiliary mode. It doesn't work then also.

    Radio on mute and can not get it on

    Thanks for the replies. No service has been done to the spyder for at least 6 months. I have been trying to get the radio to respond for the last 3 weeks without any with firm and deliberate movements. All movements move the volume up and down and holding puts it in the mute mode but it...

    Radio on mute and can not get it on

    Thanks but it will not come off mute. You can push it twice quickly - nothing. Slowly the volume indication goes up but no sound.

    Radio on mute and can not get it on

    Thanks for the reply. The external speakers are turned on. I have a headset icon it has three possible settings. I have tried each setting with each setting of the audio icon on, still no sound, all the while the radio station is indicating a artist and song being played. Any other ideas?

    Radio on mute and can not get it on

    I have a 2014 RT Limited. I can not get the speakers on. The radio is receiving as I can see the station, the artist and the songs they are singing. The volume indication will go up and down but no sound. The speakers are in the ON position in the Audio section. It is like the radio was...

    Are superclamps or other chocks worth the money in towing?

    Tie down I bought a Auto hauler trailer ratchet wheel tie down strap from Discountramps.com and it works great. I hauled my RT limited about 2000 miles last week and it didn't move. I only set a short 2x4 on the inside of each front wheel - which probably isn't necessary. I am hauling it in...

    Would you Buy 2013 RT (new)?

    2013 Spyder I bought my 2013 RT Limited in April of 2014 with all the recalls done. I paid over $7000 less than the 2014 Limited. We have over 4000 miles without a problem. If you are going to ride it in Canada you will never feel the heat. If you take it south in the winter you will have...

    Comfort Seat 2" shorter?

    Richard, I am not sure what year RT you have but if it is not a 2014 you may what to order a 2014 limited passenger backrest as it gave my wife about an inch more room that the 2013 RT Limited passenger backrest did. The 2014 backrest is a little flatter and gave her more room. dakotaspyder
