2013 st limited

[spyder stryder]

Has anyone had problems with the orange screen & parking brake fault
coming up? No code & no one at the dealer knows what is going on.
Buds shows nothing, first time the brake fluid was a little low. added
fluid and it was fine for a few days then started the same thing.
What could be the problem?
Thanks

Let's start with the Parking brake fault:
Does it actually engage and release normally? :dontknow:

No problems here with my 2013 STS SE5! I have forgotten to release the parking brake and when I put it in gear and take my foot off the brake pedal it beeps at me, but that was my error.

No problems like that with my 2013 ST SM5

Yes, Bob the parking brake works as it should. Going to check fluid
level again. As I said buds shows nothing & the brakes are in good
condition as there is only about 8000 miles on the bike. Going to look
into this farther & see what might be the problem.

That's a GOOD thing! :thumbup:
If it functions normally; you can ride it as you need, during the 'investigatory process...
Be REALLY careful with getting the brake fluid level correct: this system is pretty finicky, and gets angry if it's about six drops low. nojoke

Brake fluid levels have nothing to do with the parking brake. Check the limit switch.

Thanks Billy, Will check that out today.
Thought about the pulley not spooling
back far enough to activate the switch.
