Help! Speedometer wont work
Hello all. Brand new to the forum and forums in general, but I check them all of the time. I have a 1993 FXSTC and the speedometer doesnt work. I replaced the sensor, the cable and finally got an OEM speedo and still nothing. I had it at a shop and they said all that I needed was the new speedometer and still nothing. Light comes on, all is plugged and tightened but nothing. Any advice would be amazing!!

Yeah. There should be a small tab on the backside of it. If the tab is still there and it turns with the wheel then I would say that the gears inside the unit are stripped out.
You have this style unit on the front wheel right?

Have to thank you guys. This is why I like to do the work myself. I have been so busy I let a shop work on it and they missed the pin. It was bent but I was able to get it in and for now I have a speedo!! Thanks a million guys!
