• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    Park brake

    I heard back from mechanic today. He said yesterday, the park brake release worked every time he tried it. This morning it worked fine, turned off RT, got lift set so they could put it on, and hook up buds, it wouldn’t release. Got it on lift, hooked up buds, he said it had so many codes, he’d...

    Park brake

    I have a 2017 SE6, it’s in the shop because the park brake wouldn’t release. From what I’ve read on here, that’s a problem that RTs have. No telling when I’ll get it back, I took it in last Tuesday, so it’s been over a week now, and I just called today and they said it would be next week before...

    Park brake

    Thanks everyone. Haven’t heard anything back from them yet. Called and they said it’d next week sometime. I’ll let you know what they say. I put a trailer hitch and wiring harness on it about 2 months ago, they’ll probably say it’s my fault.

    Park brake

    I have a 17,RT SE6, about 3 months ago, park brake wouldn’t release, unhooked rear linkage, got it home, and it started working. Hooked it back up, all was well. Until yesterday, wouldn’t unlock, unhooked linkage, got it home, still wouldn’t work. Took switch cluster out, unplugged park brake...

    Parking Brake won't Release

    I have a 2017 RT. My park brake wouldn’t unlock today, took linkage off so I could get home, got it home, it started working. Hooked linkage back up, still worked, came in to eat lunch, went back out to park it, wouldn’t unlock again. I guess I’ll have to take it to dealer and hopefully they can...

    RT Belly Pan & Oil Change

    I just changed the oil on 2018 RT a couple weeks ago, for first time. Had a 2011 RT before, and changed it all the time. I never took off the belly pan, didn’t jack it up or anything. Take off the right side panel so you can get oil filter out. I used a rubber pan that goes under a water heater...

    What size tool for an RT Oil filter?

    Shower wrench deal it pretty flimsy, I doubt if it would work for much more than filter. I just used it Sunday to change oil filter, worked great. I also get a large rubber pan that is used under a house water heater to catch oil, that way you can take out both plugs at same time, and not have...

    What size tool for an RT Oil filter?

    I was in Home Depot looking for a 36mm socket. They wanted like 12 bucks for one. Then I didn’t have a half inch ratchet or breaker bar, so that would have been another 30 dollars. I carried socket all over store looking for something that it would fit on, found a pvc cap that was real close...

    Trailer wiring harness

    Thanks billybovine, I was hoping that you would straighten it out for me. I was looking at the 5 wire colors on the showchrome, and they look to have different color coded than any 3 to 2 converters I have found. Is that a problem with connecting them ? How can I make sure I have it right ...

    Trailer wiring harness

    I have a 2017 RT with automatic. I recently bought a harbor freight tag along trailer. I have been looking on here about which hitch and wiring harness to get, and it seems like the more I look the worse I get confused. I’ve heard showchrome has both. I’m sure I want to get an isolated harness...

    Reverse button sticking

    I have a 2017 SE6 RT, today I noticed that when I would push the button to shift to reverse, it would kind of stick. I had to press right in the center, kind of hard to get it to shift. A week ago, I rode in the rain almost all day, would that have anything to do with it maybe. It seems like if...

    Another windshield height question

    I had a 2011 RT, I now have 2017 RT. Is the windshield height the same for both of them ? Maybe it’s just me, but it seems like in lowest position the 11 was a lot lower than 17 is. Is there maybe a way to change the gear setting to make the 17 come down a little more ? Thanks
