Does anyone have a flush mount gas gauge that works? I'm just curious before I contact surdyke about a replacement. It seems like a lot of money for something if it doesn't work. Or maybe I've done something wrong but it seems kind of hard to screw something up that only has 3 color coded wires. lol

I've checked my wiring and it's matched up correctly but the problem I'm having is the low fuel indicator stays on, both on the console and cap and I only get 1 indicator dot on the cap gauge even when the tank is full.

I know I can ignore it and just go by mileage to determine my fuel range but like I said, it's a lot of coin just to have a flush mounted cap. But then again, HD does stand for high dollar!

 

No problems here. However, I didn't know the cap had a low fuel indicator as well as the console. I thought it was only the 6 dots.

 

I have the HD flush mounted gas gauge and cap and it works well and have no issues at all. It was a bit tricky getting the wiring hooked up on the gauge because I bent the prongs, but after that..... no issues. Really dresses up the bike and gets rid of those big hockey pucks.

 

Thanks for the input, so maybe I have a bad one. I am going to check the wiring again to make sure I have good contact and see what happens I guess.

Jaburg, agree, it does clean up the tank and looks a lot better than the hockey pucks.

Thought I had remembered reading on here before that a lot of folks had issues with the gauge functioning correctly.

Suuie, yep, has that guy with his finger in his ear (gas pump symbol) on the gauge too.

One of my to do items Is to get my console lighting changed to blue. Although I'm seriously just thinking of disconnecting the cap gauge.

 

I know those flush mount caps have been through several revisions. That is the only thing that has held me up on the purchase of them. I have heard about a 50-50 review on them.I am with you,if I am spending good money I want it to work period.I believe the letter at the end of the part # dictates the revesion #. EX: A was the first,B was the improved version,C was the improved version over B. Check to see what part# you have may be they sent you an older version.

 

Same here Dean, many guys have had problems, thats whats keepin me from doin it! Love the look but not gonna pay HD money for junk. Teflon

 

NO issues here almost two years running

 

Tommy good info, thanks. I'll have to check my part # when I get home.

I'll still keep them but fringe at thought of the coin just for something that looks good. I could have saved a ton going with the Kury ones I guess.

I haven't given up on them yet though.

 

i have one on my fatboy and Leds come on sometimes most of the time some of them don't. On my Rocker never have had a problem with that one at all

 

I installed mine last year and no problems yet
