FWIW, I've had mine now for 3 months. I've ridden about 4,000 miles in 125+ temps (Death Valley), in 30 degree temps, rain, sun, whatever. No issues.

 

is that the unit in your picture? i dont even see the tach

 

The issue was never resolved! I sent photos to Harley and they said that there was no problem. The problem was very hard to photograph and I asked to send in the bad unit for inspection and they wanted no part of that. They also said that all Speedos will fog up under the right moisture conditions. I tried to explain to them that this was a chemical that actuall sticks to the glass. Oh well!

The photo on this forum is of my stock Speedo.

These units work great and they look sharp. The one that is on my bike now is clouded at the bottom and I guess I'm just going to have to live with it. features of the unit outweigh the defect under the glass.

Go ahead and get a Speedo and hopefully yours won't cloud up!

 

i know you don't wanna hear this, but if hd has determined that 'you're good to go', and you feel that you still have the issue, you could call the guy on here who is taking the speedo and tach apart to change the guage colors for some pointers on separating the glass from the gauge and clean it yourself.....

though, i would be leery of taking a $300 gauge apart as well.....

 

Weird thing, I have an 05 road king, and speedo shorted out after washing it. I bought this same tach, but the model # ends with B instead of A. Same thing except for there is no KPH on MPH. I followed the install and data link to a T, and when I would ignition I'd get a NO CAL in the LCD, and then that would go away, and it was replaced with NO SPD. It would not transfer the odometer to the new odometer. I'm thinking that if your speedo stopped working, replacing it with this type of Speedo will not work due to the inability to transfer odometer reading of a broken speedo to the new speedometer. I can't find anyone with an answer to this.

I thought this might be an issue, as the old speedo was as if it wasn't there because IT WAS BROKEN (insert Sam Kinison Tirade). Our shop service guy in Folsom checked with the mechanic, and "it's okay, just follow the directions." Engine switch on, Data Link plugged in, no go! I had the old speedo out, and was tapping it and banging it slightly, and I saw LED partially show numbers, they would immediately dim if I stopped squeezing the old gauge. Thinking the ecm possibly sensed the old speedo after doing the Fonz bang and tap on the old speedo, which seemed to allow some juice into it, so I did the transfer procedure again, and something did change this time as it just went to NO CAL, without going to NO SPD.

I'm assuming NO SPD means it isn't sensing a speedo. Well It stopped that, and the NO CAL shows. There is a red light blinking, but then after a bit the red light goes solid and stays on. But still it did not do the conversion. The trouble shooting guide for this particular NO CAL says, normal function, but ads as long as "percentage and ok" show, which they don't. I went ahead and plugged the new speedo into the consul to see if something happened, and the new speedo lit up beautifully, but with NO CAL or something I forget. But no odometer transfer. I'm wondering if I should ride it and go through that 31 mph countdown the document spells out.

I'm going back down to get a speed sensor. Apparently, it could be that issue if the signal lights don't cancel, for one sign. With the bike just leaning on the stand, it doesn't cancel. Somebody said I had to at least lean it or move the steering for it to cancel, which I haven't done. So, I'll check for cancellation leaning and turning the bike. With all the forums out there only about 4 of these issues are on the net, and none of those who had the problem explained how they solved it. These speedo combo's don't work if your replacing a broken one. They should explain this, as there is no refund for them. They seem to only work if you are upgrading. I need to get the odometer reading back, as I'm selling. Any ideas?

 

Resurrection from the archive grave

 

Okay I'll try that fix Thanks

 

Exact same post in about 5 threads...really?

 

I'm chomping at the bit on this waiting for answers, and yes really. I forgot about OCD, and I apologize. I hope this shake up didn't damage any fine china! My sincerest apologies.
