What is this wire for?
I thought Spyders don't come with heated seat.

That lets the computer know that you have a passenger

This tells your Spyder that you have a passenger onboard so the suspension can make appropriate adjustments.

:shocked: Sort of...
Technically; that sensor lets the computer know about the presence of a passenger, so that the front to rear brake bias can be properly set. :thumbup:
(I guess that the brakes ARE a part of the suspension... )

Wide load switch, is one of the names.

Nanny also makes an adjustment in how it responds to the yaw signal. With a passenger the center of gravity is higher.

What they said....

But the best is that it has a purpose and if it is not connected you will have nanny issues. You may have noticed many cars have a simi;ar feature to activate airbags and such when passengers are present...:thumbup:

That wire and sensor are also connected to the rear seat ejection system. It's integrated through the intercom to the computer. Should the rear portion of the intercom remain open for more than 4 minutes, it automatically arms itself for activation the next time the rear intercom push-to-talk switch is moved. If another 4 minutes passes w/o that switch being moved, then the system will disarm itself and revert to standby mode. :roflblack::roflblack:
