Default No Cal on 2007 Softail deluxe

I took the speedometer off to put one of these custom speedos on the bike, and a couple of days after that, the speedometer started showing NO CAL. Does this mean i have something loose somewhere, or what?

never installed one but i think i've read where the dealer has to do something to a new one to set the miles to what was on the old one...wouldn't want to trick anyone by putting zero miles on older ride. might be something else with that...

yup....

No Calibration Set - They need to reset the mileage and calibrate the speedo for wheel speed to make sure it's acurate while riding.

No, It has to be calibrated with the ecm if EFI or same thing if carb with ignition module (still has ecm for map sensor/crank sensor)
