• 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.

Do you have extra lights installed?

Have done an hour and a half in bumper-to-bumper-watch-their-toes traffic. No problems.

Check the battery connections at the battery, Then charge the battery, And if you have a lot of extra lights you could be drawing too much volts, at low rpm [under 35 hundred to 4 thousand] the Spyder's Mag cant keep the battery charged up.

:agree:
 
First, check your electrical load. Heated gear, or large numbers of lights could draw more juice than the Spyder can produce at idle. Having a combination of things, like heated gear, foglights, extra lights, and a trailer could do it, too. That being said, the more likely culprits are a.) loose or dirty battery connections, b.) a low battery, c.) a bad battery, d). a loose rear frame ground (negative jumper terminal under the seat). You are going to have to do some testing and troubleshooting to track down the cause. What you are experiencing should not normally happen.

speaking from experience, replace battery before it strands you...
