    Default 2014 RT stranded in Winslow, AZ

    My friend from Arizona is dead in the water in Winslow, AZ. 2014 RT

    The codes he pulled are;
    U0100
    U0122
    U0073
    C006C

    Is there something he can do to fix the fault and get back home?

    Has he checked his fuses yet?

    I don't think so. I'll suggest that. Do you know which ones and which fuse box?

    A quick Google search found this about 2 of them.
    C006c is in the ECM module
    It is a VSS CAN message plausibility error
    Caused by communication intermittent/erratic and/or Check Sum Error.
    External troubleshooting is not possible, check for communication fault.

    UO122DPS is in the DPS module.
    It is a loss of communication with the VCM (loss of CAN ID's.)
    Caused by VCM fault active. Damaged circuit wires, damaged VCM or damaged DPS/VCM pins.
    Action..Check for VCM fault.
    Disconnect MPI2 from DLC connector.
    Measure resistance between DLC-1 and DLC-2 (expected value = 50-70 ohms.)
    Measure resistance between DLC-1 and ECMB-C1 (expected value < 2 ohms).
    Measure resistance between DLC-2 and ECMB-C2 (expected value < 2 ohms)

    I looked up the codes in the app and they all are electrical / CAN Bus in nature. I don’t know which fuse but the descriptions in the owners manual should give a clue. I don’t have schematics. Maybe Billy will find this thread and can ferret something out.

    He is checking them. He thinks it might be a relay, but I didn't see any reference to a relay in the code descriptions.

    You know how those fuses can be hard to see. Remind him that he may have to pull them to get a good look.

    Have him look for damaged wires, like maybe the harness on the swingarm having come loose and rubbing on the tire. If there are no blown fuses and no damaged wires the the most likely suspect is the VCM, vehicle control module. If it's bad I think that would be a first here on SL.

    Something else to consider is the battery, if it's low on voltage it can cause all sorts of codes. Is it the original battery? Ours only lasted 3 years on our 14 RT.

    I agree when it’s electrical check the battery and it’s connections.

    Well, when you're stranded on a corner in Winslow, Arizona, it's tough to get into it too deep. Once he finds out what the issue was, I'd be interested.

    I just got home and did not see this thread until now. Sorry I could not help. I would like to know what he finds out. Tomorrow, when I have more time, I will take a look at the codes and make a guess.

    He recently had the compressor and air bag replaced. Might have happened then.

    From the you tube vids after the Eagles , about strange lonely cities:

    We were in Tonopah last week on our way to Vegas.

    Well all the codes are Can Bus communication errors of some kind. Multiple modules involved. So damaged or shorted Can Bus wires. That could come from some recent work being done. If nothing done recently. Then I would look for water in one of the connectors.

    Default Still do not know!!

    So..I see that my friend UtahPete told every one here about my ordeal in Winslow AZ. It started the day before: twice I got the dreaded Limp mode. Took the key off, waited some time and it started again... Being a good catholic boy I said: "I must has touched the brake while the throttle was open"! Double sin: I knew I did not do that and just lied.

    Related or not: the bike was starting with a more diesel sound than normal, almost like a cam chain loose before the hydraulic chain tensioner get in function (on a "normal" bike). It started again yesterday after 90 miles at a good clip and went on every 5 to 10 miles after this I decided to limp to Winslow all the way from 2nd Mesa.

    As this happened to me a year ago I kind of think it is one the big relay by the fuse on the left side: I did not check it (what for...did not have a replacement!!) but I am sure it was burning hot like last year.

    Twice in one year on a flat bed.... I am trying to be tired of my -14 and as the -11 I had before was not stellar either so... I am starting to think about life without a Spyder....
