• 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.

    Cruise control problem

    Well, I got brave and took the right control module apart to get inside. I was able to get the control working again by stretching the springs when I had them out. I am sure there is wear on the contacts as well, but, that little white circuit board is not replaceable. Hoping to find springs...

    Cruise control problem

    My question is if these springs can be changed and/or upgraded. This is great information, and I had forgotten about this until the most recent issue with my speed control began, and it is getting worse. Interesting that the speed will set when holding the resume/accel position for a few...

    Criuse control and shifting problems with a 2015 RT

    I am aware this is an old thread, but will give it a try anyhow. I have a 2012 RT SM5 which has had and now has again a problem with the cruise control. Each time, it is the same symptoms. While it was still under the extended warranty, the cruise control would quickly display off when the...

    Running Rough Back Fire Gearing Down

    Thanks. Just checked the MAP sensor hoses. They are fine, no cracks, seated well. Will check the other side on the vapor canister side. Other than that, no idea about any other vacuum hoses..

    Running Rough Back Fire Gearing Down

    Good Morning: I have a 2012 Spyder RT SM5 which I purchased new and now has 43.000 miles. Had problems with it running rough some time back, took it to dealer who said they found some water in fuel system and added something to gas. After that, I had new plugs and wires, from Baja Ron...

    Code P2806 Gear Position Sensor

    Manual Transmission vs. SE I got this error last week on my 2012 RTSM5 which has 43,000 miles. I was turning into a parking lot at very low speed when this happened. Are the posts here related to the SE or SM models? I also experienced a loss of throttle when this occurred. Concerned...

    2012 RT SM5 will not shift into reverse

    Oil OK Oil level is fine. Either the switch, actuator or wire must be failing. It was fine, then not. Thanks to all who responded. I will check for a loose wire as soon as I can get under there.

    2012 RT SM5 will not shift into reverse

    Frustrated, just got my 2012 RT SM5 back from a rear tire mount and oil change. Rode it a couple of hundred miles on a group run last week, no problems, and a few short trips. I had checked the oil level after getting home from the shop, and it was full, maybe a bit over full. Yesterday it...

    Oil cover tupperware blowing off

    Parts to Order Just had an oil change at a dealer. Noticed the next day the right panel was GONE! No need to ask them, they are not too bright. Surprised me the right side was gone, as there is no need to remove it on an oil change. Looking at ordering the replacement parts now. The...

    Air Scoops for 2012 Spyder RT

    Anyone have a good source for the air scoops for 2012 RT. A lot of confusion regarding these, and the replacement. Some people say they got them free with a push from their dealer, and some say they were installed free as a "good will" from BRP. I only know that there is far too much heat...

    Is it enough to cause a lean condition (P0174)

    That is interesting, since when I did that, the active error code P0174 did go away. Coincidence perhaps.

    2012 Spyder RT SM5 Clear Check Engine Warning

    Check Engine Spyder Codes This is why I am so confused. If there is no error code, no warning lights for any other condition such as oil pressure, temperature and so forth, it would SEEM as if the check engine would not be on. Again, I have been led to believe that previous error codes are...

    2012 Spyder RT SM5 Clear Check Engine Warning

    Check Engine Spyder Codes Yes, I have done the BRP salute any number of times, and get a blank screen. I cleared the code from the active screen by using (MODE-SET-(HEADLIGHT FLASH five times)) This removes the code from the screen, but does nothing for the dreaded ORANGE flashing CHECK...

    2012 Spyder RT SM5 Clear Check Engine Warning

    MAP Sensor Hoses When these were replaced last May, I was at Spyderfest in Springfield, MO. The guy who did the work was a factory tech from BRP who was on site at Pitbull Motorsports for the event, so I assume it was done properly. He should have been the best in town! I know I was...

    2012 Spyder RT SM5 Clear Check Engine Warning

    Techron in tank Got the Techron and have ridden some with no codes, just wish I could kill the CHECK ENGINE warning so I would know when this happens again. Apparently, only a dealer's computer will reset the dreaded orange screen!

    DoseYDoes, Error Codes & Limp Modes

    Lots Of Good Thoughts Here I think the unrest that many feel with the Spyders is due to all the "black box" items. They are highly computerized, and, at times a bit confusing. I still wish there were some way to clear the dreaded "check engine" after I have been able to remove the code from...

    2012 Spyder RT SM5 Clear Check Engine Warning

    My 2012 RT SM5(26,000 miles) has gotten the P0174 code twice within the last week. In the hope that this might be a singular occurrence, I got a local dealer to reset the code the first time. I rode fine for over 200 miles, then got the code and check engine (irritating) orange screen again...
