• 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.

    Starting to hunt down what is causing a P16C8 code.

    BUDS2>Settings>ECM>Relearn TPS Oh, sorry, your dealer will be using BUDS3. Don’t know my way around that.

    Starting to hunt down what is causing a P16C8 code.

    Well @CloverHillCrawler, you're on the right track. Reading through your previous post, I see that you pulled up a summary of causes from Google. But specifically for BRP products, the cause of this code is listed on the attachment. And No, I wouldn't get too concerned about the ECM fault part...

    10.25 Screen Rebooting during ride; the Screen data is not updating; and Statistics data us incorrect - any Suggestions?

    Yes, I think one of the root causes that BRP was pursuing was that the BT software conflict, by having the phone AND headset both paired to the Spyder at the same time, was crashing the whole system. Pairing the phone to the headset instead, if a person needed that added audio service (like...

    2011 RT Ltd - left controller dead - anyone else had this happen? Any ideas/fixes? What causes it?

    Hello, and Welcome to the forum. The Left Hand Multifunction Switch is a CANBUS module. But, on the 2011 RT, not all functions are controlled via the CANBUS. Specifically, the Hi/Lo/Flash for the headlights (engine running for headlights) is a discrete switch not using the CANBUS. Also the Horn...

    10.25 Screen Rebooting during ride; the Screen data is not updating; and Statistics data us incorrect - any Suggestions?

    A month or two back, Smoak had a machine in the shop doing the same thing. He actually caught it on video doing it twice during a test ride. He got direction from the mothership relating to the USB cable requirements. Make it as short as possible and ensure it is a high quality data cable such...

    Catastrophic Damage at 2026 D3WR - any suggestions on transporters to ship an F3 home to NC?

    I understand his desire to just want to get it home. It's not covered by the Recall. Even if he has to pay out of pocket for the repair, though, I think I'd also be thinking about just having it repaired there in Rapid City at Rice's, and then ride to home. Either go home and come back for it...

    2018 RTL GPS circuit. Blew a fuse? Can anyone give me a pointer towards which one?

    If yours is like that, then you’re correct.

    2018 RTL GPS circuit. Blew a fuse? Can anyone give me a pointer towards which one?

    Yep, that’s the vent that goes on the rear of the headlight assembly. According to the parts diagram, each light assembly has two of them.

    2018 RTL GPS circuit. Blew a fuse? Can anyone give me a pointer towards which one?

    If you were using the connection on the right side, then that power comes directly from the radio power supply. Thus, it is very limited and not able to supply your needs. If your bike does not have a 12v power plug already installed up front, then the ends of that accessory power harness should...

    2018 RTL GPS circuit. Blew a fuse? Can anyone give me a pointer towards which one?

    Hey Ken. I think we need to reset. To begin with, you have been referring to this power connection that you used as GPS2. I just assumed that you were calling the 12v accessory connection a GPS connection, as that's what most people use it for. However, there is a dedicated GPS power connection...

    2018 RTL GPS circuit. Blew a fuse? Can anyone give me a pointer towards which one?

    Double checking. If you want that power to be switched ON and OFF with the key, the F6 position has the fuse installed, the F7 position is empty.

    2018 RTL GPS circuit. Blew a fuse? Can anyone give me a pointer towards which one?

    Hey Kenny. In your manual in the back where the fuse boxes are. Right side fuse box - right side as you are sitting on the bike - fuse F6. DC Plugs. It’s 5a. If it blows a second time with nothing plugged in or hooked up, then you’ve messed up your wiring somehow, and created a short. Go back...

    Mysterious drive belt adjustment change

    Yes, but what are you going to do with that information once you get it? 111 lbs-ft +/-4. Keep in mind that the bolt comes with that encapsulated thread locker on it that is one time use. If you simply put a torque wrench on it, thinking that you can check the torque, that’s inaccurate as all...

    Anyone know of a source for a 2010 RT brake cable? Or any alternatives that will fit?

    In this thread beliw,, jcthorne posted that the 2010 - 2012 cables are all the same, even though the part numbers are different. Post #13. I’ve never personally held them both side by side, but he’s pretty knowledgeable. Part number 707000927 seems to be available in multiple places...

    No First Gear after unloading from the trailer - what do I check and how do I fix it?

    Yeah Richard. Maybe it’s up too far now, and the solenoid can’t pull it far enough. So, as long as it’s still functioning, you have to bend it down a bit till it’s in the sweet spot. But as Ron pointed out, most times an owner has to buy a new bracket. Then the alignment is correct.
