Well, I got brave and took the right control module apart to get inside.
I was able to get the control working again by stretching the springs when I had them out.
I am sure there is wear on the...

My question is if these springs can be changed and/or upgraded. This is great information, and I had forgotten about this until the most recent issue with my speed control began, and it is getting...

I am aware this is an old thread, but will give it a try anyhow. I have a 2012 RT SM5 which has had and now has again a problem with the cruise control. Each time, it is the same symptoms. While...

Thanks. Just checked the MAP sensor hoses. They are fine, no cracks, seated well. Will check the other side on the vapor canister side. Other than that, no idea about any other vacuum hoses..

Good Morning:

I have a 2012 Spyder RT SM5 which I purchased new and now has 43.000 miles.

Had problems with it running rough some time back, took it to dealer who said they found some water in...

I got this error last week on my 2012 RTSM5 which has 43,000 miles. I was turning into a parking lot at very low speed when this happened. Are the posts here related to the SE or SM models? I also...

Oil level is fine. Either the switch, actuator or wire must be failing. It was fine, then not. Thanks to all who responded. I will check for a loose wire as soon as I can get under there.

Frustrated, just got my 2012 RT SM5 back from a rear tire mount and oil change. Rode it a couple of hundred miles on a group run last week, no problems, and a few short trips. I had checked the oil...

Found no clip, just a torx screw. Thanks!

Just had an oil change at a dealer. Noticed the next day the right panel was GONE! No need to ask them, they are not too bright. Surprised me the right side was gone, as there is no need to remove...

Anyone have a good source for the air scoops for 2012 RT.
A lot of confusion regarding these, and the replacement. Some people say they got them free with a push from their dealer, and some say...

That is interesting, since when I did that, the active error code P0174 did go away. Coincidence perhaps.

This is why I am so confused. If there is no error code, no warning lights for any other condition such as oil pressure, temperature and so forth, it would SEEM as if the check engine would not be...

Yes, I have done the BRP salute any number of times, and get a blank screen. I cleared the code from the active screen by using
(MODE-SET-(HEADLIGHT FLASH five times)) This removes the code from...

When these were replaced last May, I was at Spyderfest in Springfield, MO. The guy who did the work was a factory tech from BRP who was on site at Pitbull Motorsports for the event, so I assume it...

Got the Techron and have ridden some with no codes, just wish I could kill the CHECK ENGINE warning so I would know when this happens again. Apparently, only a dealer's computer will reset the...

I think the unrest that many feel with the Spyders is due to all the "black box" items. They are highly computerized, and, at times a bit confusing.
I still wish there were some way to clear the...

Sorry, I should use this site more, so if I duplicated that question, I am sorry.
Thank for your valuable input on both.

My 2012 RT SM5(26,000 miles) has gotten the P0174 code twice within the last week. In the hope that this might be a singular occurrence, I got a local dealer to reset the code the first time. I...

Somewhere, I read details of a replacement gas shock for the seat, which is a bit stronger and supports the seat in the up position if there is a small backpack/bag on the seat. It seems there was a...

Just before the end of my factory warranty, I noticed my kill switch, which had always been slow to engage failed to kill the engine. I had questioned a delay in this switch since I owned it, and...

Well, I attended Spyderfest 2015 and spent most of my time getting problems fixed. Got to the Spyder on day 1 of my visit, and no clutch, so took it to Pitbull, and they topped it off for me and...

Yep. That happens frequently, even on HOG open events.

Thanks for your great reply and all the information. I will take a look at that soon. As the weather is warm now, it probably will no do any harm. Just tightened the one worm clamp that came on it...

Do you know where the thermostat is, and the procedure for replacing it? That is a tight area (aren't they all) under there, and some of the factory clamps seem to be non reuse items. Thanks for...

I just noticed this on my 2012 RT/S this winter. Thought it might be a problem, but feel better about it after reading these posts. I wonder if this has any effect on the already low gas mileage?...

My 2012 started a slight drip under the right front side recently (that I have been aware of). Followed your suggestion, and found the screw in the one "normal" hose clamp was not even finger tight....
