2009 GS SE5 VSS & ABS Failure codes

[spyderman504]

Hello all I have a 09 GS SE5. It’s been 6 months since I started it up, but it’s always on a battery tender; also, I put the gas treatment recommended for the Spyder in the bike sits up. It started up fine yesterday, now today it won’t crank over. The battery is good, brake fluid is full, the code it shows is VSS Fault and ABS Fault. I took a short video to show you guys. Please help. Thanks, and Happy Easter.

Curious...

To be clear the engine now does not even turn over....? If so start with the battery and all its connections. Don't know the age of the battery but may be done and only working on a surface charge. Try jumping with another battery or the car engine off. Multiple codes are a common cause from a dead or weak battery. If it is turning over but will not fire up try the TWO throttle wide open proceedure. Turn her on, hold the throttle wide open and crank the engine for 10 sec or so. Then try starting normal may take a couple tries.

Brake codes can come from low fluids, sticking brake light switch, brakeligh bulbs, brake pads you see a lot mentioned here. Start with the fluid and pedal switch.:thumbup:

Up date to all it was the battery somehow the battery tender wasn’t giving it a full charge so I charged the battery overnight and now runs like a champ thanks to all for your help God bless.
