I had Fanedal following me and he died. I tried to get a new follower but they tell me that I already have someone following me. I go back to Fanedal's body and I can't talk to him to tell him to part ways I can only search his dead body.

Anyone have any idea how I can dismiss him even though I can't talk to him anymore?
I've tried going back to Riverwood but he won't re-spawn.

I've looked for the problem and haven't found it.

One tip I read stated that you should do the companion quests and when you get to the one where I think Vilkas joins you, that causes the old follower to be bumped away.

i just got the game and haven't had much experience with a follower, but could you raise it from the dead then talk to it?

it sucks, but it seems to be a bug.

I know this doesn't help you, but this same bug got me on Fallout New Vegas. Kinda ruined the game for me not being able to have my followers and totally not worth redoing w/e 30+ hours of gameplay.

I've had this problem, and yeah it prevents you from having anyone follow you for awhile. However, I can personally attest to having a follower added for ANY quest will solve your problem.
