I have a 2005 R3 and put a new battery in back in April and I put a Digital Guard Dawg keyless fob in May. The bike has been sitting since late May and not started and battery was completely dead. I was able to charge it up and returned for a replacement under warranty. Now I have power and everything on the instrument cluster is working, the bike starts and runs normally, but the odometer screen is completely blank. I'm 99% sure the odometer was working after the Guard Dawg install. I've seen others on here with similar issue but no recommendations other than replace the odometer. Any other suggestions before I go that route?
 
If memory serves the odo was digital on the 05's. It was fed from a sensor for wheel rotation to send a speed signal and the odo was calculated based on speed. The first thing to check would be the sensor is getting power and is working. If so the odo is probably fried since it's getting the input. According to the schamatic I have the power from the instrument cluster is at pin 18 (orange and red wire) and coming from the ECU is pin A21 (pink and yellow wire). The black wire is a common ground.
 
On mine the odo stopped working but speedo sti works so I think that the speed sensor is working
I.have been living with the problem
Bought a pair of gauges but the gas gauge works on the top half of the tank which makes it useless.
It is hard to find a used one. And when one shows up thet grab it quick .

I'm curious, the led display on my Touring is fading out, this seems a good place to ask, as we have a couple of brains here is the milage stored in the odometer or ecu? Curious if I replaced the gauge would it show true mileage?

I think that it is stored in the speedo assembly
