I'm hoping somebody can point me in the right direction, as to what's wrong with my speedometer. Here's a video of what my speedometer is doing, when I turn the ignition off and back on again: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HEpr...ature=youtu.be
It's a 2006 883 Sportster. I've checked the codes and there are no codes. I cleaned the speed sensor and that didn't fix it. I could replace the speed sensor, but I can't help but think it's something in the wiring. Or could a bad speed sensor be causing this? Has anybody else had this problem?
If I ride, the speedometer will (over time) go down to 0 and then just stay at 0.
