My 06 FZ6 is making me crazy! Short-story-long
Years ago I re-geared (15-48) and it made the speedo even worse than stock. So I bought a SpeedoHealer v3 and set it up. No problems with it at all until late last fall.
It started to lose its settings so that the speedo always read 0, no matter how fast I was going. I figured it was loosing power so I hard wired the small red wire to the license plate light connection, which I had never used since I put the fender eliminator on almost 10 years ago.
It would still revert to a 0 only reading sometimes but almost always flipping the dip switches in a repeat of the setup procedure would get it back to a working condition. I figured the flash memory was failing.
It never failed while I was riding, just on start up, and I ~think~ only on the first start of the day, never as I was riding or subsequent starts.
Winter came and I put the bike away for a couple of months. Now that it is warmer I have removed the SpeedoHealer and replaced it with a 12 O'clock Labs SpeedoDRD Model: Y1. It plugged right in but does not work! Speedo reads 0 no matter what.
What I have tried/found:
Speedometer works if I plug the factory connections back into each other.
The test generator signals for the Y1 will communicate with the speedometer-all 3 frequencies.
I have set and reset the correction percentage into the Y1.
I have e-mailed 12 O'clock Labs with all the details to see what they think is going on but I wonder what some of you guys think while I am waiting to hear back from them.
I do have some codes if I run the diagnostics. But I don't know how old they are and I don't think I have a way to clear them because I have bypassed my kill switch. It messed up a couple of years ago and now I use the key to shut it off. I never realized it was used to clear codes untl this morning...
I am hunting a working kill switch if anyone has any leads.
