• 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.

On my 2011 RS-S both fender lights and the led strip lights are out at the same time on the left and right fenders. Maybe a fuse? Anyone else have this problem? It's Friday the 13TH today maybe that's it.

Could be..!!

:roflblack: but if you have several lights going out at the same time you should start with the fuses. Otherwise backtrack extra light installation..good luck..!! :roflblack:

Trouble Shooting Fender Lights

Hi Mike. On my 2011 RT I had also installed the fender LEDs following the instructions that came with it, connected to the fender tip lights. I also changed the tip lights from the stock ones to the LED ones, only to not only have them go out on me but kicked the bike into limp mode miles away from home. I didn't have my manual for help but good thing I was riding with a bunch of other Spyder owners that did. Took us a while to figure out that a 15 amp fuse that controlled the turning signals, Ipod and a few other things was blown. I replaced it only to have it blow again as soon as I turned on the bike. Seeing that I only had one 15 amp fuse left I had to disconnect the fender lights and all was back to normal. Now I'm just going to put the lights on it's own circuit with a relay possibly hooked up to the fog light switch. Or maybe make them turning signals only. If I can do both that would be even better.

I disconnected them there was short in the right fender led strip. Thanks for the help.
