• 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.

Ryker mph/rpm/reverse just froze & won't work - any ideas?

Ryker mph/rpm/reverse

Hello everyone,
Can someone help me out.
My mph, rpm just froze and won’t function properly and I noticed the beeping when I put it in reverse also stopped.

I’m disconnecting the battery for a while to see if that helps.

Thank you,

Gerome D

Gerome, I've merged your 2 threads - no point in having more than 1 ;) & expanded your title to briefly ask your question... usually works better at getting answers. :2thumbs:

That's an odd one on a Ryker!! I'm not all that sure that disconnecting the battery will do anything, but it certainly can't hurt... :thumbup:

Maybe while it's disconnected you could test its voltage (tell us what it says ;) ) &/or attach a charger just to make sure that the dash/reverse beep freezing thing isn't just a sign of a flat battery?!? :rolleyes:

Over to you! :cheers:

You mean the gauges froze at one reading? The reverse works but doesn't give warning beep?

Can you provide more of an explanation?

Hi there
Thank you for responding

I currently don’t have any response when pushing the soft buttons on the instrument cluster.
There is no mph, rpm, or temp reading
I can’t get out of eco mode since I have no response when pushing the soft buttons on the cluster panel

When I put the bike in reverse there is no more beeping sound, hazards than normally would come don’t anymore.

Signals don’t come off automatically when making a turn, I have to turn it off manually.

I appreciate everyone’s input.
 
Are you getting a blank screen nothing on it at all? Maybe it came unhooked in the rear, or it's shot all together! Still under warranty, use it!!
 
I guess that disconnecting the battery made no change?

I think Ed is suggesting disconnecting and reconnecting the battery as a start to helping you troubleshoot the problem. Most of us are familiar with Spyders, but not Rykers. However some troubleshooting may be common to both.

This is the first I knew of a beeping alarm when a Ryker is in Reverse.

The screen is on but not functioning
Nothing works it just at 0 and the temp gauge has 0 bars
The buttons on the side I can’t even use it doesn’t work

When I used to put it in reverse it a beeping “warning” sound to alert people around you

It sure does seem like there's a problem with the electronic module that controls those things. Take it to the dealer while it's still under warranty.
 
Wondering if you were fiddling about with something around the dash module and knocked something loose? Maybe driving in the rain with a loose connector?

And ya, sounds like there may be a service visit in you future, eh.
 
Where is the dash module located ?

Yes I’m dreading the service visit everywhere is backed up!

Look for the bit where the speedo, tacho, gas gauge, etc normally appear, with the buttons on it. That's the dash module - it's the black box that makes up the dash & all its workings, display, buttons etc...There's a fairly large bunch of wires that plug into it - check to make sure that's tight, not wet, etc. :thumbup:
