Dash stays on

[lightnin leeRoy]

Rode the Spyder to work today, after I got home and put the Spyder in the garage, Spyder shut down normal, except the dash went a plain white color and the controls on the left handlebar stayed on. I heard the click from the front area as the rest of the lights shut off. I checked on it after 1 hour, the dash was still white and the left handlebar lights were still on. Any ideas.
I have a '14 RT L

first time i ever heard of this, did you turn the key back on than turn it off to see if the dash went out

might try to disconnect the battery after checking all the fuses and relays. This should reset the systems if it continues check with your dealer. If you have made any changes mods or hooked into the electrical system re-check that work...good luck and keep us in the loop...

I removed the key numerous times, I haven't done any wiring at all.
I went out this morning, the dash was still white and the left handlebar lights were still on.
It started just fine, I noticed that I didn't have to push the left button to start it. That message came on after I started it.
It ran fine, I think I will call my dealer and see what he has to say.

In Left fusebox (as sitting on RT):
F8 fuse is supply power to R2 (pre-start relay), check that also.
F7 fuse is supply power to R3 (main relay); cluster, etc.
I had to replace R2 (pre-start) relay with new one as I also did not need to push mode button to start, on my 2014 RT-S.
Sounds like R2 relay is loose or b.o.; maybe R3 relay loose (cluster).

Well, I took my Spyder in to have it looked at. He said he hadn't heard of it either, but said he figure it out.
They are going to do the laser align as well.

I picked up my Spyder today, they changed out the start up relay. After they had it in the shop overnight, the dash went to normal.
He still changed out the start up relay anyhow, under warranty.
While it was in the shop, I had them install the sway bar & heim links along with the 3rd & 4th brake lights. They also made it so my 3rd & 4th brake lights pulse four times then come on steady. The factory brake lights don't flash.
I took it for a 30 mile ride after work today. The sway bars are great. Thanks BAJA RON!!!
