Analog tach combo fuel gauge problem
#21
When I first installed the combo gauge and turned on the ignition, I realised I forgot to install the jumper. Then I turned it off, installed the jumper and turned it back on.
Do you guys think turning it on without the jumper at first might be causing the problem?
Anybody got a solution from the dealer?

Hi Airframer,
I think this information is for the Sportster Fuel Gauge Kit (75031-09) setup. The analog tach combo gauge has a different setup method (with the button behind the gauge).
Do you think this setup (with the turn signals) has to be done as well as the setup with the button behind the combo gauge?

Ok I did I little research and found 2 similar official H-D documents.
1. http://www.harley-davidson.com/en_US...ts/-J05412.pdf
This is the document you shared. I tried doing it the way it describes, but when I turn the key from IGN to ACC and then hold both turn signal buttons pressed, nothing happens... Am I doing something wrong?
2. http://www.harley-davidson.com/en_US...ts/-J05551.pdf
This is the document that came with my combo gauge. If you take a look, it describes the steps to set the fuel tank size differently (by using the button behind the gauge and turning the key. Not using the turn signals.). This is the way I set my fuel tank size, etc.
Do you think this might be the problem? Maybe it has to be done using the first method (turn signals)...
Another thing that caught my attention is the documents' REV. dates. Document 1 (the one you shared) is dated 2014-01-15, document 2 (the one came with my gauge) is dated 2012-06-29.
So this means, they recently changed the gauge setup instructions for some reason... What do you guys think?

Still no solution for our inaccurate fuel gauge problem... Really annoying!

Hey guys,
I have the same fuel gauge problem with my 2011 XL 1200 X since I installed the Combo Digital Speedometer/Analog Tachometer (P/N: 70900274) and Fuel Level Sensor Kit (P/N: 61200008). The low fuel light comes on, but the fuel gauge never drops below 1/2 tank (2 bars).
Anyone got a solution for this problem yet? Feels like I wasted $150 on the Fuel Level Sensor that doesn't work...

Has anyone figuared this out yet? or have any answers?
