Does anyone know what this code means?
-
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.

Thanks. All Greek to me. I pulled this up tonight. 2010 RT SE5 went into limp mode yesterday in Daytona. I'll call the dealer on Tuesday.

If you pulled it up on the display, it is not a stored code, it is active. Sounds like either the O2 sensor is fouled/bad or there is a wiring issue. Could also indicate a fouled spark plug. This might clear on its own if it was caused by a momentary slug of fuel or soot through the exhaust.

Thanks Scotty. You were the first to respond to "My First Limp Mode" thread yesterday. Thanks for the comments without the sarcasm. Being a new owner, limp mode is of great concern to me. Some owners have had shutdowns occur while traveling in heavy traffic. That can be very dangerous. I was apprehensive about my purchase from the start. Yesterdays event didn't make me feel very confident in this otherwise nice machine.

I'd see your dealer. This can be dealt with, and is not common. Once you work out the glitch, your Spyder should be fine. Sorry for the off-color comments and sarcasm on the other thread. They were embarrassing, and not representative of the way SpyderLovers usually respond.

Spyder was checked by the tech today. Could not find anything wrong except for some updates that needed to be done. This still does not tell me what happened on this past Saturday. To say i'm perplexed is an understatement. I am supposed to go on a ride to Charleston, SC on Friday. Feeling a little uneasy and should not be when i'm riding. This is suppose to be fun.

Doc is basically telling you, and all of us, that this is what the maintenance manual list as the "Cause" and then the "Service Action". The fault is listed as "LAMBDA Sensor 2 upstream cat. range/performance" and involved the ECM Module (ref: MidWest Manuals p279).
This may info basically means > "See Your Dealer" :roflblack:
As an additional note, intermittent electrical faults are the hardest to troubleshoot for any tech because it may check "ok" then revert to "fault" when not being checked. Most of us do not have the kind of money to justify the "shotgunning parts" to see if it fixed the problem. It may take patience on the owners part to wait for a hard-fault, unless they want to spend money "chasing the problem". No easy answer if nothing is found.

I understand burps. Things happen. But don't throw me into limp mode for a burp. If that happens on the hiway in heavy traffic it could be disasterous. Just give me a check light and I'll take it in. I would bet a good lawyer could make a convincing case in a situation such as this.
