Looks like after118 looks no one seems to or have had a display problem,Well i have with the help of a local friend which owns a similar bike have sorted it out And of course these are the places to let every one know as to if any one starts to suffer from the gremlins.
It was fixed by the replacement of the no2 main relay from the front fuse box, it had become lazy Now back to enjoying the bike

Display errors are mostly caused by three things. Bad fuses/relays, loose connections, or battery getting ready to fail. Since you had starting power--the other option seemed to work.
I note you have a 2011. If your still on the original battery--it may be time to change it out. I do mine every four years--whether they need them or not.

I'm pretty sure that several display problems have been reported and discussed on here in the past.
Did you actually do any searches to see if you could find them ??
Anyhow, glad that you got it fixed. Seems like I remember that most with problems finally went completely dead and the dashboard/display had to be replaced.

2009 RS SM5 runs but no dash, horn, etc - Any Ideas?
My 2009 has recently been having intermittently no display on the gauges while also no horn, turn signals or power steering. The bike starts and runs great but with no display you don't know speed, rpm, which gear, etc. I have checked battery connections, messed with fuses but don't know what there is in common with the loss of specific items. Gauges and all return without explanation. No check engine codes.

Do not know if you are still out there, but my 2009 just started doing same thing, additionally lost of power steering assist. I tried everything you did initially and finally went to the Spyder blog. Thanks for your input and will go look for a Number 2 main relay.

Have you pulled the dash component and checked for corrosion on the pins? A possibility.
