JERBEAR

[JKMSPYDER]

Back in June Jerbear had reported that his RT was finally back home after being in the shop for weeks. Dealer said it was repaired, but Jerbear was going on a two week vacation and would test it out when he got back. Has anyone heard the outcome? Jerbear can you comment on the repair job?

I was wondering too.

"can you comment on the repair job?"

Thanks for your interest - nothing to report at this time. Temps here since returning from Colorado have been off the charts (four days of 122 degrees in the past two weeks and few others below 112 /115. I simply don't have the confidence to leave the area - on the Spyder - and it's a little to warm to test it locally.

Please keep us posted when you do get to ride it for an extended period.

Well......after a long HOT summer and much anxiety about whether or not the Spyder was really fixed at the end of last riding season. The verdict is in...IT IS NOT!

Just the facts.

11/22/17 30,353 miles at startup(same as was on it at the end of last riding season when it came back from its last repair).


11/22/17 P160E @ 30,363 miles. Fourth startup of the day. Warmed it up and shut down to load gear. Started & went for fuel, then stopped up the street to eat. On startup(semi cool engine) it showed a check engine warning w/code P160E. Cleared on its own, but shows in memory.


11/23/17 - First 150 miles. Only code so far was P160E on the 22nd.

11/29/17 - P0174 @ 30,675 miles.

In just 322 miles of use.

It's the same ole codes.

Third riding season of this crap. Three years!

Sad

P160E
Electrical Actuator (ETA) Shorted to Vbat.
Damaged ETA, Damaged circuit wires, connector or ECM pins

P0174
System too lean bank 2
Injector or fuel supply
Check injector & fuel supply.


The P160E issue could be causing the P0174. Sure sounds like they did not fix anything from last time....

Time to do that Death Valley ride you talked about a few years ago!
