MaJoNi64 Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Anyone who has had issues with speedo dying? Mine has died a couple of times to 0. Recently the whole instrument was dead only backlight on. Any suggestions on what to look for? Skickat från min G8231 via Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Duc2V4 Posted August 18, 2017 Member Contributer Share Posted August 18, 2017 Fuse and loose wires are the first items to check. Also the battery and charging system while you're at it. If all those check out, the plastic nut that connects the speedometer with the front sprocket would be one to investigate. This item would definitely affect the speedometer reading but would really have no affect on the dash going out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum CEO HispanicSlammer Posted August 19, 2017 Forum CEO Share Posted August 19, 2017 Usually a loose battery cable, but there are ongoing issues with a ground connector behind the dash of some owners bikes that become corroded and lose good ground contact.
