Led mod, no odometer
Well, I had my gauges modified. LED's and faceplate. I won't badmouth the gent who did the work because he worked with me and in the end, refunded my money.
I now need to get things fixed.
My odometer lcd screen no longer reads anything. He tells me he removes the lcd and sets it aside as he solders on the board. What else would/could cause this?
Thanks! I'd hate to send them elsewhere for fix only to find out the board is screwed.

I opened it up. I'm looking at the lcd screen and am now wondering if it's properly touching the board. My friend is an electronics guy who offered to take a look. I should know more in a few days
Can you send me some pictures? I have done a good number of 2014 sets and have never had a problem.

Ok, here's the update to this story. My gauges are now perfect thanks to kh24. He received my gauges and completely resoldered the crappy first job. He then was able to repair the faceplate that had been damaged during removal. The total job is now a complete success.
In the end, I can't recommend a certain company that starts with "Speed" for gauge work. The quality of faceplates is very low. The soldering job is amateur at best. Plus, he does not have a canbus testing ability to reset the needles to where they need to be.
If you want it done right, send them to harleygaugemods. Joe knows his stuff. Joe finished the job, corrected the job, and went above and beyond. I owe Joe more beer than you can imagine for taking a nightmare and turning my gauges into the dream I hoped for. Thanks Joe!!
