1st service finds error code

[MidTNDawg]

Had my first service done yesterday (8-7-14) and the tech found an error code. I had a bright orange screen one time for a moment and then it was back to normal. No "limp home" mode, no problems of any sort. Code was for low brake pressure. My best guess is the orange screen was 500-700 miles ago. Just FYI.

You should probably check the brake fluid level in the reservoirs up under the seat...
Please let us know what you find; good luck! :thumbup:

He said the code was for low brake pressure. That's foot on the brake pedal.

Low brake pressure.

:dontknow: I wish that he'd tell us what it took to fix it... :dontknow:

Low brake pressure.

That's what I thought but not what I typed. pps:

I had the low brake pressure warning. Topped off the MC and it went away.

There was no fix

As noted, this was a momentary (VERY momentary) a few hundred miles ago. Nothing since. If the color had not been so bright, I would have missed it. The tech said nothing to be concerned about so I am not.

"Foot on the brake" mentioned above. What causes that to set an error code?

My 2010 RT. If you barely and I mean barely touch the pedal for a few seconds. Nanny thinks you have a brake problem. I did it yesterday (again). Usually you have to shut the Spyder off, take the key out, wait a few minutes then start over with start up. I never had in reste while I was driving it.
Experts ? Could that be it ??

OK. thanks. I may have done that, but I never stopped, just kept riding.
