    Default Check Transmission Alert

    Has anyone had issues with the check transmission display and orange screen. Happened 5 times this week while biking in the Smokey mountains. This was the first time the bike had been driven in these mountainess conditions. Dealers had no clue so far without inspection. My bike is a 2012 RT-S with 2500 miles. Thanks

    My only thoughts are, check your oil level, maybe it needs a drink.

    Maybe oil low or even too full. Check oil.

    I have had the similar happen to us. Since 4 June 2014 we have had this happen 8 times. Wait for about 5 minutes and then start up and ryde home. Have called to set up an appointment with dealer, but they are too busy servicing two wheeled motorcycles. Still don't know what the problem is.

    Sorry to see that your first post is about issues with the spyder. First line of defense is to check the oil level. Low oil will cause the warnings that you mentioned. A low battery will do the same.

    Hope you do not have to take a trip to the dealer for a fix.

    Thanks, Have an appointment for this week. It could be oil related as it appeared to me the oil was above the dipstik level. Had the dealer change my oil before my trip, now a problem?? makes you wonder.
    Also found out from other forums, could be a shifter sensor or gearbox may need resetting.
    Hope this can be found as bike ran perfect for a year.
