thanks for the all the quick replies, much appreciated. i'll go and disconnect the speedo then and go from there, i'm quite familiar with the wiring from having to replace the unit last year so fingers crossed its something obvious. i'll keep you updated, thanks again for the help!

Hi, I stupidly jet washed my FZ6 last weekend, as the frame and hard to reach bits were filthy. On the next ride I lost all power and all info from the display and had to be recovered. Once home I worked out that fuse 5 was blown, and it kept blowing when I replaced it. I can see it...

Hi, I'm having some trouble with my front indicators - everything is standard and been working fine for ages, however recently the left front indicator stopped working and the left rear flashes very quickly except when using hazards. And now, the right hand side is doing the same, except not...

I've just changed my clocks as the old display packed in, only problem is now that the mileage of the new clocks is 32000!!!! The last MOT (when i was last able to see the mileage on the old display) was 16000! So, do I just leave it as it is and try and explain the high mileage if I come to...

all sorted! managed to re-wire it last night, wasn't too tricky in the end. only prob now is i've cracked the little plastic bracket that the speedo sits on so its a bit wobbly, so need to find the part number to order a new one....

Hi, I posted a while back that my display was playing up (very faint and not complete display) - I managed to get a new one from eBay but must have picked up a slightly different model as the connections are different - the '04 FZ6 N clocks have 3 connector blocks (a block of 6, 4 and 1...

I saw those on eBay but they are different - my display is all digital, doesn't have the analogue tacho, but would these work with the same connectors if i could fine one cheaper? Thanks

I'm not 100% sure its the unit - which connectors could be at fault and are they easily accessible for me to check myself? I'm not very technically minded but I'm willing to have a go! Thanks

Yeh I found the newer model that was for sale - I've seen quite a few R6 clocks on eBay - but don't have a clue whether any other displays would fit onto an FZ6. Just going to need something to get through the MOT I guess, and also so I know how quick I'm going now and again!!

Hi everyone, At the end of last year my digital display started playing up - basically it gradually lost its functions bit by bit until nothing was visible - you can see it still registers everything but just can't display it. I rode it through the winter til December so thought it might have...

thanks for the replies i'll have a bit of time next weekend to have a look at things - does anyone know if it will be easy to access the connectors and earthing points etc? will it just be a matter of tracing all the wires back?

A few weeks ago I posted as my speedo display was very faint in parts, and this cleared up a few days later and was as bold as ever until a few days ago.... Now there's nothing on there at all, apart from the engine temp gauge still works. I'm not sure whats caused it as the bike is always...

My bike's been left outside for a week while I was on holiday (it probably rained while I was away!), and now the LCD display looks very faint and with some of the wrong bits illuminated (eg. the bottom bar of the temp gauge is on with the clock when the bike is turned off!) It seems like it...

I wasn't patient enough when installing an LED brake light and snapped a bit off the bracket, so mine is a bit wobbly now too but its been like that for years now and is fine, so don't worry! :thumbup:

Hi everyone, Recently i've been having trouble with the ignition barrel. The key turns from the steering lock position to the off position no problem most of the time (sometimes is a bit stubborn) but the real problem is turning it from "off" to "on". It just wont go, so i have to keep...
