• 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.

My GPS 660 factory install will not power up or down with the bike any more, had a bad clicking noise which I got rid by moving the mound back and forth but always shows on battery and like I said never powers up or down with the bike:banghead:
 
If under warranty I would take it back to the dealer and let them figure it out. You can also trace the wires back to the battery and make sure every thing is tight and the fuses are good. Unfortunately most of the panels (as you are sitting on the Spyder ) on the right side have to come off .
 
Try cleaning the contacts on the back of unit. They can get a bit correded from the elements. Had the same issue, a little rub with a pencil eraser and all is well.
 
And if you start pulling off the panels - there is a fuse for the GPS line the line back near the rear of the bike (at least there is if you aftermarket install it so it may be there on a factory installed one)
 
If the Battery power icon is on the Screen it is only being powered by the Internal Battery and not getting any power from the
on board system

When it gets on board bike power the Battery power Icon is not displayed

When My Zumo 660 was fitted by a dealer the Connection the Positive and Negitive connection was not sealed and had become
undone

I reconnected them and ensured they were sealed - No further problems

See this video ref the Positive and Negitive connectiions

Well took all the panels off and started looking around and I thought it was the power connector, what it turned out to be was the connector that has the power and 3 other wires in it. The ground wire had pushed its way out of the connector, pushed it back in and re connected together. No more problems.:ohyea:
