Does not want to start?

2010 RT, plenty of battery, brake on, holding the start switch, nothing! Bad switch maybe?

When you turn the ignition switch on do you hear the fuel pump run for a few seconds?
Do the brake lights come on when you put your foot on the brake pedal?
Is the engine run/kill switch in the run position?
Is it in neutral or another gear?
Is it a SE or SM trans?

Yeah, simple stuff first.

- Mode pushbutton

- Kill switch

:agree: Even if you assume that the battery is okay (and I wouldn't!); check for brakelights, and then check the kill switch...

Anytime anyone says "plenty of battery" I always question how they know!
Unless a voltage gauge was added, there is nothing on the Spyder to tell you that you have enough battery to turn it over even if the lights DO come on!

Even if the battery says 12 vdc like mine did it would go down to 10 v when load tested. If you need to test it check out Bob Finnes video it will help you. Any auto part will check it and only order OGM Yausa battery for no problems. Call me I will help you on the phone.

Ask me how I know...

New battery fixed my 2010 - same issues as posted.

FWIW
