• 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.

Exactly where is the yaw sensor?

Dunno where it is on a Ryker, but it might help to know that on the Spyders it's (usually) on the main frame pretty much right on the CoG..... :dontknow:

Altho it IS worth noting that the 'usually' is because it seems either someone at the factory gets a weed on every now & then, or possibly it's a 'dealer to mount' item & some dealers just don't bother.... :sour: I've found a few Spyder Yaw sensors randomly zip-tied to different parts of the frame, often not even on the centre-line, and one just hanging loose on about 8 inches of wiring, so it was swinging freely around in the cavity behind the frunk/above the steering!! :shocked:

But more importantly, why do you ask?? :dontknow: . Inquiring minds want to know?! Just for interests sake, of course :rolleyes:

After driving over railroad tracks got a vss fault, went into limp mode. Codes are c0063 and c006c. Wanted to check for loose wiring.
 
Thanks so much for the info. Will check it out around noon today. Will let you know if I find any loose connections.

Well had an appointment at another local can am dealership where I did not purchase the Ryker from. It's about 15 miles away, so I was going to take all back roads there because of the limp mode. Well about 5 miles from the house, I heard a long loud tone, looked down at the dash and the two icons related to the vss fault were GONE. Gave it the gas and she took off like a bat out a hell. Totally back to normal.

Kept my appointment, they checked it out and the cleared fault was related to the yaw sensor. So for now I'm just going to take it home and if it happens again, I'll give them a call and they will order and replace the yaw sensor.

Previously, i did check and charge the battery which was fine. I jacked the bike up and checked the connection to the sensor and it was mounted securely. I did not unplug and reattach it in case it has a bad pin.

Again, thanks to all for your help.
 
I heard from a rider who had a problem with the Yaw Sensor, after they changed his rear tire on his Rally .. he got a VSS code and they had to change the Sensor .. does someone know where are the points to lift her up, would be good to know when you change the tire on a "normal" tire-shop ..(like me)
