Détecteur Passager screen

I got this screen today on my RT-L. What does it 140717mean? What needs to be corrected?

That's gotta be something to do with the Passenger Detector in the seat &/or its wiring - you haven't unplugged that wiring under the seat have you, intentionally or otherwise?? Probably worth checking the wiring, plug, & any other connections tho! :thumbup:

Btw, do you normally have the digital dash display set to French? Or has that one chosen to come up in that language all by itself (or does that message only ever appear in French?)

I also see the VSS off in the tach dial. So was there a passenger when this showed ?

There was no passenger on board.
The only thing I noticed was some water on the seat this morning. It's been raining the last couple of days and now I know that my Bike Barn leaks!
The language is set to English; this the only message I've seen in French, and I think it has something to do with the passenger detection as well.
I'm going to spray the connector and switch with WD-40 and see if it helps.

140722I took out the switch and flushed it out with alcohol, and then put a bit of Corrosion-X on the metal parts. I still have the warning screen and VSS off light.

OK, I found the error code. C1183 is the VCM module - Pillion Rider Switch shorted to ground.

Time to take it in to the dealer. Good thing I have a warranty.

Looks like you figured it out. Interesting how the switch, when it gets ticked off, reverts to French. :roflblack::roflblack:
