    According to MY SPYDER2 App; C0040: brake pedal switch failure. Check bulb, fuses, the switch itself
    p2545: VSS failure , possibly related to brake fail, check harness as well. (Especially if find blown fuses)Default multiple codes on spyders : check battery -load test & clean tight connections.

    Default Can-Am Codes

    ....Google has been somewhat helpful with codes.
    I checked and 'c0040' was listed as 'right front wheel speed sensor (ABS). Give them a try and find things out. Lots of information on the Web.

    Stay Healthy. ....

    Fault Code C0040 ....has to do with the brake light switch.

    Give the Spyder Forum a try. Questions just ask.

    It turned out to be a dead cell in the battery. Battery was only 2 months old. Thanks again for the help
