LCD display on DASH2 dead?
Was doing some configurations on the bike yesterday which involved a bunch of starts and stops (setting up suspension and whatnot), when suddenly the display wouldn't light up when I started the bike. It was working flawlessly a second earlier but then nothing. It's been working flawlessly for me ev...

There might not be enough of a change in the magnetic field between the bolts and the rotor. Take a piece of steel and rapidly wave the sensor over it and see what happens. Or wave the sensor over the rotor - but it needs to move more than a few inches away from the rotor. The bolt that I use is a ...

Yeah, but I fit them so I would remember. Menu on the left, up / down in the middle and select on the right. Anyway. Back to the wheel speed sensor issue. I have it wired correctly and without the 1k resistor (as suggested above) but it doesn't seem to register a signal. I've tried holding the senso...

Well, managed to get it all working so now I'm really happy. Settled for some cheap £2 buttons. They'll do the trick for now. http://i175.photobucket.com/albums/w149/Mindless000/DSC_0001-57.jpg http://i175.photobucket.com/albums/w149/Mindless000/DSC_0005-50.jpg As for the +12V and ground I asked ab...

You need to mount the hall effect sender so that it will see a bolt head or six as the wheel turns. I drilled through the brake cooling backing plate to mount the sender and put a small bolt through the backside of the wheel bearing flange. Some people pick up the brake rotor bolts. Others use prop...

Well, I managed to get the MPH to show up on the dash now but it isn't registering anything when spinning the wheel. How should I mount the sensor to get the best readings? Do I need magnets (did note that the sensor itself is magnetic) on a bolt or two on the brake disc to get a reading? Also, I'm ...

Wheel speed sensor wiring for DASH2?
I recently purchased a DASH2 instrument from www.demontweeks.co.uk and managed to get it installed on my motorcycle yesterday. Everything is working fine and I'm really happy with it - but for one small detail. I can't for the world of me figure out how to wire the wheel speed sensor. I ordered two ...
