Yesterday, my speedometer stuck at 30 mph. It quivers a little from time to time, sometimes moves a little, like down to 20 mph, or up to 35 mph, but the needle remains in the same position when moving or stopped.
I disconnected the battery and the needle stayed in the same position. Odometer still works and appears to be accurate.
Has anyone else had this happen? If so, what was the outcome? Can the speedometer be replaced separately, or does the entire instrument cluster need to be replaced? Entire instrument cluster is for sale on ebay used for $155. Has anyone been able to fix the speedometer? The bike has about 16,500 miles and will be due for 18,000 mile service soon.
My bike has ABS and I have heard that my speedometer is driven by the ABS sensor on the rear wheel. Others have reported speedometer problems that were fixed by cleaning the rear ABS sensor. I assume that since the needle does not return to zero when I disconnect the battery and the odometer is working accurately, that the problem must be isolated to the speedometer itself. Is that a good assumption?
Thanks in advance for any help or advise on the best way go about getting this to work again.
