Ahhhhhh. Thanks JC and Deanna. I was just curious as both my phone and chipped credit cards are within a foot of the key when I turn the ignition on.

Pete

Pete, When I am on the road, I have my cell phone, camera and other items in my trunk, and my spyder starts.

Also, I have the dess module part # 710004190 ( was installed on Aug. 28th 2015) and I know my dess module part # is not the latest.


The current/latest dess module part # is 710004916.

You are welcome for the info. Deanna

 

[Deanna777]

It is "year" today since I have had the 2nd D.E.S.S. module + Switch replaced. :clap::clap::clap::thumbup: WOHOO!!!!!!
I hope I did not jinx my self.

I don't know how many times I must say the same thing before this sinks into everybody's mind.

The ONLY way to be reasonably sure the error gets fixed is:

Have the DESS Module replaced

AND

Have the Ignition Switch replaced.

Be proactive and TELL your Dealership these are the parts that need to be replaced and give them the Part Numbers!

DO NOT accept any other solution!

OR

Disable the system entirely!

I'm not going to post the part numbers again. I've done it and so has Deanna multiple times.

Believe, don't believe me, that's your choice.

If you have the latest and greatest module and it is still acting up then it sounds like they don't have the problem solved. That sucks.

AJ, :agree::agree::agree::agree: yes, I have posted the Part numbers several times for the D.E.S.S. module, and the IGNITION switch( part # is 710004413).



I posted the part number for the D.E.S.S. module/ and the ignition switch
when I had the D.E.S.S. module and the ignition switch replaced the 2nd time, in Aug 28th, 2015.

AJ,
Even if you haven't had the problem in 18 months?????

Connect an Engineering licenced version of BUDS (Mega Tech) to the bike and select the option on the Security screen.

Unfortunately, it's a crap shoot.
Should be safe, but there are those that have gone 18 months before the initial error.
I'd say if in that 18 months you've put over 5K miles on the Spyder "most likely" you are safe.

[Deanna777]

AJ,

It has been a year( last month Aug. 28th,) since I have had my 2nd D.E.S.S. module & Switch replaced. I have the D.E.S.S. Module part # 710004190, switch part # 710004413.


The current D.E.S.S. Module part # is 710004916.

Well, I joined the club today! Or OH CRAP! Paladin, I was hoping I was safe. 6800 miles and I got the DESS orange screen today. I flipped the key on/off 4-5 times fast and it started. For FYI i was parked in the center of town, and in this area when you pass through, your car radio will go to static. Has been like this for years. As soon as your out of that area static clears up. So maybe it is something in the air????? But I have parked there 100 times before, but not in this one particular spot. Which is right in front of the Library. Wi-Fi???? This area is where our six stores are and the library. (small town. 1 light, 1 alley, 1 drunk in alley. 2.5 min. Rush hour).
Any ways, I'm off to Netzley tire tomorrow, 3 hours away, so we'll see what happens. If it does it again, I'll take a picture and off to the dealer.
Tomorrow I'll take my 3 tow plan cards, extra key, empty credit card, list of dealers for the areas l'll pass through (which I think there is only one), and my 4 sheets of Spyders to the rescue. :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

What a PITA! I have never had to do this with any of the other 18 bikes I have owned.

."TAKE A PICTURE" :yikes: :roflblack: :roflblack: :roflblack: :roflblack: :roflblack: :roflblack: .........can you imagine how many Spyders WOULD'T GET SOLD ......if the customers were told ..... and you have to take a PICTURE to prove this happened........ :gaah: Please, we need to bury this MYTH ...... it's logged in the COMPUTER - - - - FOREVER .................AND THAT'S NOT JUST MY HUMBLE OPINION EITHER .... :yes: :yes: :yes: Mike

I agree with you Mike! Taking a picture is BS, but then I will have back up in case the dealer tells me, "well, it's not in the computer". I can't personally look at the computer. What I don't get is this "OPEN A CASE WITH BRP"???? WTF??? Am I lying??? It's a Warranty problem! Fix the damn thing! Now I take it that I haven't bought a brand-new motorcycle in a loooong time, last one being in '79. I usually buy used and private sale. So maybe this is a new thing that all makes are doing? I know of the 5 new bikes I bought out of 18 I've owned, if I had a problem and it was under Warranty, I told them, and the dealer fixed it! End of story. OPEN A CASE WITH BRP! Can someone tell what this means and why you have to waste time doing it?? If it's under Warranty FIX THE DAMN THING. :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

DESS error x 2

My wife and I both bought new 2014 Spyders in June of 2015. ST-S & ST-Ltd. My wife's Spyder has 2500 miles on it and mine has 4600 miles on it and BOTH Spyders have started displaying the "DESS Error" screen and won't start. It has happened when the Spyders are together and when we are on separate trips. I've read online about the problem but has BRP identified the problem and the fix? Is BRP paying for the fix? If not, how much does the repair cost? Any Advice? Thanks, Jerry

It is UNDER WARRANTY. Good luck. Deanna

Several folks have asked for help in turning off the DESS to rid themselves of the problems permananetly. If you are at the Red Rocks Rally and would like this done, I have my laptop with BUDS module and Megatech licence with me at the rally. PM me or email [email protected] or just ask at one of the events.

DESS Crashes again Yesterday

Yesterday I was in Erie PA, 5 hours from home, finishing up my Rt 6 fall tour and my Spyder failed to start two different times...DESS ERROR, Orange Screen, Flashing Key, Code P0513...

I have the latest & Greatest module 710004916...

My vehicle keys and cell phone were in the right saddle bag...

This DESS error happened at two different locations...The first time I had to cycle the key 3 times to get it to clear...The second time I was on the phone with my dealer and had to cycle the key only once to get it to clear...

Back in May of this year I had the same DESS problem and was told to keep my cell phone and other chipped key away from the key area...Everything was working fine from May until yesterday...

I've had three different modules since the Spyder was new and still have the EXACT same problem...

I am leaving to do a Skyline Drive/Blue Ridge Parkway/Tn. & Ga. 2000 mile trip sometime in the next two weeks...

I would like to have the peace of mind that this thing will NOT have a DESS ERROR and leave me stranded...

I have been having this same problem for a year and a half...BRP says the 4916 module is the fix all...and the problem is caused by something else...WHAT???

I would be very happy with the DESS turned off since BRP cannot fix this or tell me what is causing this...
