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.

Is it an original BRP key? If so pull the key out, walk away 100 feet , wait 2 minutes, walk back and try key again. This may work if it is the original BRP key. If not LOL.

Don't forget to rub your belly and tap your head at the same time too. On one leg of course:banghead:

Disconnect positive cable from battery. Move cable over and touch negative post to discharge system. Then it should crank. This method can be used if taking a 10 minute walk doesn't work. The alternative is to wait 24 hours for the system to discharge itself. Good Luck.

Contact BRP Customer Service and BRPCares on this forum. He has stated that BRP will take care of the additional towing costs due to the failure of their defective design.

Sounds like the "D.E.S.S. error". I started a thread" D.E.S.S KEY CODE AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Their is some excellent ideas, helpful tips on that thread about the D.E.S.S. module.
The D.E.S.S. module is under warranty, and open up a case with BRP.
Keep us posted!
Good Luck!

If you think this is a joke wait till it happens to you. Seriously by pulling the key, getting out of range and waiting a bit gives the system a reset (Dess and BRP programmed key) The key code and the DESS communicate electronically before you are able to start your Spyder. This has worked often for many on here as simple as it sounds.
I do appreciate the humor though!

Tried everything. No luck. Calling dealer tomorrow.

Well according to the BRP Representative
You must have been parked to close to other Spyders or a high Wireless, EM, or RF field surrounds the highway.
Next time you travel make sure you stay far far away from those high tension lines
But not to worry as BRP has all this under control!
Sure they do!

Any update?:dontknow::dontknow:
Spyder is still dead. Dealer is closed on Mondays so I'll call when they open this morning. Hopefully they can get it in so I can borrow a trailer to get it there.
tried it - along with all the other suggestions - I'm dead in the water - so to speak!

Never!!!
Never is a word I seldom use for lots of reasons.
I NEVER leave the key in the :spyder2: when parked in my garage.
If it's true that that the "system" and key comunicate with power OFF----Well ----- this could this be part of this whole DESS problem. I don't know But---it seems that no one else does either.
This is all causing:

Try this: Turn on/off immediately "DO NOT LET THE SYSTEM SHUT DOWN" do that 4 to 5 cycles . This is on the D.E.S.S. KEY CODE AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thread that I started on 8/13/15, By, Deanna777.
I got the above from my dealership.

I only remove the key if I'm out someplace otherwise it lives in the ignition switch. So far so good.
