Speedo not working
« on: 21 September 2011, 09:13:46 pm »
It's been a while since my last post, sorry.


My 2002 foxeye Fazer 600 has a speedo that went from reading over 100 mph whilst moving around the garage to not working at all.


I've checked the front wheel lugs and electric cable and they're fine.


I've checked the 3 pin terminal under the tank - fine. I've swapped the speedo sensor for another and still  no speedo.


The battery is fine, terminals are tight, and the battery charges properly.


I've unplugged all the terminal blocks under the tank and in the left side panel. I've had the speedo head off and I've sprayed them all with contact spray.


I'm really struggling now to find an answer. I've read all the threads on the subject ans two of the most interesting have dead links in them to a solution page.


Please can I have an answer ?


cheers


Mac

not to sure to be honest but cld the unit be faulty?




no resemblence at all in vehicle but my audi a4 had that very same problem and that was electronic speedo, changed the sensor and no didfference.


replaced the unit itself and it was fine....just an idea for you..maybe you cld find someone near with a scrappy they wld let u try before buy.


hope you sort it tho

it could be a problem somewhere else in the loom like a dodgy earth. does anything else happen when the speedo goes loopy?
