Help - new tires and wheel speed sensor errors - Limp Mode with Codes C006C, C003A, C1290, & P2159. Anyone else? Any advice?

Centramatic wheel ring balancer is what I meant then, not balance beads. I do not have the Spyder back yet and dont know what combo of tire and ring balancer they've tried yet.

I plan on keeping the tire absolutely and once I get it going for a while, I will re-visit the idea of the vredestein back on eventually if they end up taking it off.

The rings work fine, but your shop, wants you to use the beads, whatever, they are also a BIG advocate for using stock tires here again whatevre!!! My question to you is, what are they fighting here, is it still throwing codes, even after putting your ring back on the rotor and changing the sensor?

I did not watch the video. But this is a very confusing story. Are we saying that the Tone Ring was missing? When you replace the rear rotor, that part must be transferred. But you would know right away as you'd be getting codes. Or was it just that the speed sensor needed to be replaced? As mentioned before. If the sensor was impacted by something during the tire service, that would be enough to damage it.

It's not the Vredestein tire (which several have pointed out). It just isn't. We've put a few hundred of them on, not to mention other aftermarket tires, with just 1 issue, which is unrelated to this problem.

I can't imagine that it's the aftermarket rotor, though I'm not there so I can't be sure. I do not know of an aftermarket rotor that is as poor quality as the OEM product fitted from the factory. To be fair, most are fine with the OEM rotors. But they are just above the bare minimum on the quality scale, (my opinion).

I hope they aren't just throwing parts at the problem, hoping to get lucky. Admittedly, we all do it. But the items sighted here just don't fit the bill.

I bought the Spyder a few years ago and on my first ride, it went into limp mode. A friend and I tried to replace some parts to get it going and failed so I took it in here. Either it was already missing the speed sensor wheel or I had not replaced it during tire change. Regardless, that was replaced and a new sensor. Any other parts that have been replaced were probably due to the Spyder sitting around for a while on the coast and were much needed.

I think the whole rotor thing mustve been miscommunication or they were dumbing it down for me telling me about the sensor wheel.

I'm just gonna wait to see what comes out of it when I get a full update with all the details and hopefully a running Spyder. Sorry, I feel like I'm guessing a lot right now with what's going on.

The only time the tone ring on any rotor needs to be touched, much less come off, is if you are changing rotors. No other process or service requires anything be done with the tone ring. This is one of the story lines that does not make sense to me. Again, it may be me missing something.
