Adjusting setting on rear shock 2014 RT Limited

[teninospyder]

New here and looking for what I am doing wrong. Followed instructions in manual too many times now, and still no change indicated on the dash setting. Looks like it is set at "high" regardless of what I do (indicator is all the way on the bott. I have been using the "when stopped" instructions on page 59 of the manual and sitting on the seat at the time. Any suggestions please ?? BTW, Indicator is all the way on the bottom - which the manual says is the "high" point (seems strange but OK, it's their choice).

My understanding is that the Spyder has to be running and in gear before the rear shock adjuster will work.

it works best if the Spyder is moving when you adjust the rear shock. (i just tested it)

hope this helps

It does have to be running.

Personally, I never watched that closely, but from what I recall, this seems to be how it does work.

Not sure which is up or down, but most often it can be felt as it cycles.

pushing on the forward part of the switch will make indicator go up on the screen and cause bike to ride higher /firmer .the rearward part of switch obviously does the opposite .bike should be running and in gear to change settings.if this doesn't work you have a problem

Hope I'm doing this posting thing right.
I was following the "when stopped" instructions, but I will try the when moving tomorrow.
Thanks all.
