    Default just installed bluetooth dongle; spyder won't start

    Hi,

    2013 Can Am ST Limited

    I just installed the bluetooth dongle. It is the Cam Am OEM and I followed the instructions for installation.

    When I turn the key to start it, I get the clicks for the starter but the starter doesn't engage...the message panel blinks and resets (as if I had just turned the key to the on position). There are no error messages.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks for your help,
    Aaron

    First of all make sure the kill switch is on.

    Default Battery is low

    I have had this before. The battery is low. Once charged it worked fine.

    Default Battery..!!

    Did you disconnect the battery for any reason..?? Check the connections make sure they are tight. Then check voltage and charge if needed. Good luck..!!

    Default It was the battery

    Thanks everyone! It was the battery. I guess I shouldn't have listened to the radio while I was putting the side panels back on.
    I'm usually not timid around machinery but this thing is so complex and cramped. I just knew I had bumped a wire loose or something.

    I just got an ST-L and wonder how this works? You can set it up to listen to the radio with BT headset? Can you also add a Satellite radio? Thanks
