DESS ERROR ON SCREEN WONT START
ON A recent trip I had frequent occasions when DESS ERRER came up on the screen when I tried to start my 2014 RT limited. Sometimes a picture of a key would also come up and the engine wouldn't start. The problem became increaseingly worse and I had to call emergence Road service and have my Spyder taken to a dealer. The Dealer was courteous and tried to be help but couldn't find the cause. Has anyone else had this or a similar problem? Bookboy.

Yah, I've got and ongoing problem with that. Sometimes if I turn it off and turn it right back on, it'll go. Other times if I take the key out and put it back in, it'll go. The dealer re-programmed my keys, but it threw another one while I was on the Gaspe. The dealer says if it continues, he's going to replace the ignition so I guess that's the direction I'm heading in now.

This past Sunday mine would not start, I was in Wis. dealer there put the computer on it and it showed there was no key in it so they changed it out and I came back to Mo. When I called my dealer to get its 3,000 mi. done they told me it would probably happen again that BRP thinks it is in the software but hope to find it soon my dealer has had several in the last couple of weeks. And while I was in Wisconson a gentleman told me he had just had his replaced and already was getting the orange key so was taking his back to be checked out, hope they find it soon before I head to spyder in the smokies.

Mine did it too
About 3 weeks ago on the way home from Pigeon Forge I stopped for gas and when I tried to start it up I got the key symbol and DESS. I took the key out and walked away 3 times before it let me start it. I didn't cut it off until I got home and took it to my dealer the next day. He said it showed that the key and the ignition weren't communicating. He had to order a new ignition and it cured the problem. 2014 LTD by the way.

Same with mine; happened last week. Buds hookup didn't show any problem, but dealer said if it happens again, let them know. I've already had the ignition replaced once.
As mentioned above, its beginning to look more like a computer glitch rather than faulty ignition.

Turn the key off. Wait 30 seconds and then try again. Repeat. Also move everything away that has a strong radio signal such as a cell phone.

Keep that picture for proof with the dealer. Depending on how far away from the dealer you are. You should have free towing as part of your warranty.

Yes I have free towing, it's just so frustrating! Don't want it damaged in towing as well! Errrrrr lol

DESS
I had the same problem with my 2014 RTL a couple weeks ago. Finally got it started and immediately took it to the dealer. Turned it off at the dealer and sure enough, as the tech was looking at it the DESS came on. They had to order a replacement switch module and new keys for me. Took a couple days, but haven't had the problem since. Hope this fixes the problem.

DESS error
What a surprise this morning when I went to start my spyder DESS error on display. tried many times started ones then back to DESS error. call dealer common problem with ignition module . has to be replace
-
Thought mine was fixed
I posted in another thread that my dealer reprogramed the keys and I had not had a problem in 7k miles. Well last week on a 7 day trip just outside of Zion park shut the bike off while my friend got gas.....Low and behold DESS error. Would not start no matter what I did. Pushed it out of the way and went and had dinner, came back and started no problems. The rest of the trip it started with no further problems...I don't know what the problem is, but I have not had any parts replaced and do not believe parts are the problem since some folks say they have had the parts replaced multiple times and still get the error. Never had the problem on the 11 or 12, only on the 14. On a side note I now have the warped rotor problem (which started on this trip as well) getting kind of tired of things going wrong. I have just over 19k so rotors should not warp... It is the right one just like numerous other people have reported... Dealer (2 different ones) says it is a wear item. Ordered from Ron, trying to get away from the BRP crap. On a good note I averaged 42mpg on a 2k plus trip.
When the going gets tough...Downshift..

I have had the ignition Switch replaced once( Aug 28th, 2015) and my dealership reprogrammed both keys, and gave me a new trailer lock. Since then I have not had the any issues.
The part # for the Switch is 710004413. I have a 2014RTS-SE6. I have a thread going " D.E.S.S. KEY CODE AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!" about what the my dealership did. The thread is 17 pages long.
The Switch is UNDER WARRANTY. Deanna

I have a thread going " D.E.S.S KEY CODE AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!! started on 8/13/15. The thread is 17 pages long, it has some excellent information about the D.E.S.S. error.
The D.E.S.S. module is UNDER WARRANTY. Also have your dealership OPEN UP A CASE WITH BRP.
Have your dealership replace the D.E.S.S module, do not back down. Be sure your dealership has the D.E.S.S. module before you leave your spyder with them. Please post on the thread that I have going. Keep us posted. Deanna

I have a thread going "D.E.S.S. KEY CODE AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!! that I started on 8/13/15. The thread is 17 pages long, and with a lot of excellent advice to take to your dealership. Also It has some suggestions on what you can do to get your spyder started. I have had my D.E.S.S. module replaced twice, and the ignition switch replaced once. I have not had the D.E.S.S. error show up yet.
