Speedo started acting up a while back and cleaning some plugs seemed have helped for a while. So this time I replaced the plug between the sensor and the harness, that didn't do it. Cleaned the contacts on the instrument pod, that didn't do it. Removed and clean the sensor.
Anyway
If I get out the old welder soldering iron and hold it near the sensor the speedo reads a nice 72km/h and will do so all day it seems.
I am left wonder if anyone has seen theses sensors act up only when warm? It seems to me that is behave a bit better when the bike is cold and especially on cooler days.
What would you do next?
