recall

[robmorg]

I guess I will have to repeat. The Angle Rotation Sensor is also called the Gear Position Sensor. Just as the name describes it senses what gear the transmission is in. That is what is shown on your display so you know what gear it is in. The ECM wants know so it can manage the engine correctly. The TCM needs to know so it knows when gears have been changed successfully. The onboard diagnostics in several modules need to know so that they know that is working like they are suppose to.

...and the dealer needs to know so they can inform the customer, because BRP does not. But neither do most dealers - it seems only the best ones do. Bottom line... Everything and everyone needs to know except the customer/owner. And there's no way for the customer to find out unless he has the forethought to ask a dealer to periodically check his serial number against the BOSS system.

Seems like there should be a better plan, right? ...or what am I missing? :dontknow:

sensor

I have a 2015 rts-se6 that I bought new August 2015. I was riding to work with about 150 miles on the bike when the bike started shutting down and showing codes. Had to limp down the freeway on the side of the road starting and stopping as the bike would keep shutting down. Had to leave my new Spyder for about 5 days until I researched and found out about the sensor issue and called factory and was told mine was one that had the sensor issue. Called the dealer and they were able to make the update and get me going again.
Since then no issues and loving my ride.

Mine went out on my 11....the wife's might be going out soon... that sensor has a plastic "D" in it and the plastic give out so the "D" shape hole becomes an "O" and won't hole grip the bar that moves the D to tell the sensor what gear it is in.

When they go out it will intermittently through errors but the bike will still ride ok until it gets so bad and really csn't tell what gear itvis anymore.

That is my experience anyway.

Dealer advised last month of GBPS failure campaign on 2015 F3S

I went in for 3000K service and dealer told me about DESS recall and the "GBPS Failure Campaign". They took care of both. Service directly related to Angle Rotation Sensor was one our labor to R/R GBPS AND CLEAN CONTAMINATION.
