• 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.

Code - C004B - Adjusting the Master Cylinder Rod on ST 2013

I'm trying to go off of what is on page 685 in the service manual to adjust the master cylinder rod. I believe I am getting code C004B after initially loosing the brake in an effort to lower the brake a bit. Now it seems I can't get rid of this code that pops up after riding a bit.

I've tried adjusting it over 10 times now. I'm not sure why it has to be so sensitive when deciding to throw this code.

If this code is being thrown for some other reason it would be greatly appreciated, however I haven't seen it listed anywhere online, nor on the My Spyder - SpyderCodes.

It was too loose for even the electronic parking brake on the 2013 ST to engage it, but I tightened it. Should it be tightened all the way until it actually starts to compress the rubber stopper?

Any assistance is appreciated.

Thank you!
 
Little checking..!!

having done some work in that area you may need to check the brake switch. This may need adjusting. Double check the brake fluid if the rod has been repositioned it may have lowered the level. Touchy system but very effective...:thumbup:

About that, once it has been "lowered" by the system what, using more? It won't go back up, right?

I took a look at it, but it was hard to tell, I took the caps off and they looked full, but I couldn't see through the side where it shows the min/max on the container below the seat.
