Speedo and tach not working

[Bowen]

My speedo and tach both stopped working at the same time any ideas

follow the wiring down and see that something hasn't come loose....and check your fuses. If no joy, load test the battery. It may be near death.

If if happens again - STOP - Move the handle bars from left to right (Full lock) back and forth to see if they come back. if they do - it is a possible problem in your wiring harness or plug under the tank

Just the clocks or dashlights too?

Just the clocks

Lets call @DEcosse into the chat. But check the fuses whilst we await the maestro.

Im new here .........how do i get there

 

[DEcosse]

You can check fuse 3 but sorry to say with this vintage of clocks there have been quite a few failures of the speedo itself
I have a set of bad clocks for analysis loaned by one of the members but to date have not come up with anything

 

[Bowen]

Ok thank you .......if i come up with something I'll let you know

Speedo and Tacho together at the same time - sounds unlikely though, mate - Don't you think?.. Any common feed or earth that you know of?.
