Like so many other, I'm commenting on an old but VERY helpful video! I bought this (or some variation) of this gauge. For reference my bike is a 1984 Honda Magna (VF700C). After watching your videos and doing additional research, I was able to get almost everything connected. The tach, speedometer, signals, high beam indicator, oil light (I think), and 6th gear overdrive all work. The fuel gauge does NOT work as this is not supported by my bike. Thanks for making this video. 2 years later it's still helping!
FUEL GAUGE Some of the posts on this and other videos state that grounding the fuel gauge wire (blue and white) will cause the fuel gauge to stop flashing. With my ones (3 of them) this was not the case. I have found that you need to ground it via a resistance of between 30 to 500 ohm. Anything more or less wont have any effect. 500ohm displays 1 bar (of 8) i.e. almost empty. 30ohm displays 8 bars (full). (about 330ohm is half full etc.) So if grounding the fuel wire doesn't work for you, try grounding it through a resistor between 30 and 500 ohms.
thanks....I finally figured out the speedometer setting and how to scroll through the "menu". Now this has helped me get the tach working. Thank you, my gauge is now fully functional.
Ruben Storie I just picked a random number like 750 then I downloaded a GPS speedometer app on my phone and I rode the bike and compared the spedometer to the GPS speed if the speedometer was too slow I would add 25 for example 775 and try again. I have a 19 inch front wheel and to the best of my memory I ended up at 852 for the 3 digit number
+1075twist I know the number you end up with is the tire circumference divided by something else but idk what you divide by. I have a 21" front rim so I hope the rim isn't too big cause the 3-digits only go to 999 and you were almost there with a 19" rim
My son's went to the 12grand as well, and the signal wire was not attached yet. but fixed it self after recycling the speedo on and off a few times. We installed onto a pit bike, no movement yet on the tach. I don't think the frame is grounded, will be my next step. fingers crossed. thanks for the video
Update to my previous response a year ago (84 Honda Magna 700): I still have the speedometer and it works. I actually ordered a second one that has a speedometer cable port, but even though it looks the same, it's not nearly as smooth. I'm going to continue to use the original gauge I bought. In order to clean up the look of the bike, I found speed sensor cable on AliExpress that, in theory, will replace my existing speedometer cable with a digital sender that will communicate with the gauge. I'll update when I get it and try it out. The fuel sensor has been the BIGGEST issue. My gauge blinks constantly. Grounding the sensor cable does not work for me. HOWEVER, I have found that it has a resistance range of about 10 ohms to 90.5ohms. At 10 ohm resistance, it shows full. At 90.5 ohms it shows the very last bar. I'm currently experimenting with a way to have it show full then empty when the bike hits reserve. The original gauges only indicated low fuel (not actual level) so this would be a good OEM replacement if it works.
I'm glad it helped, to bad the needle is decentered! My speedsensor died when I tried to make the gauge milge to be exactly as the old. hocked the sensor to a tablefan and glued some magnets to the blades. But I guess the sensor got overheated when "driving" in 188km/h that long. Got a little pulsgenerator to fix the milage and waithing for an new sensor
+DRugfree1987 I get people asking me about this problem allot now, Can you update the description of your first video with the link to this one. It will be easier for them to find
+DRugfree1987 Hi! thanks again for this. Im kind of a newbie with all this, but did you do as +jamrJrus explained in a comment in your previous video? (connected it to the wire between the pick up coil and the spark unit). Because in the video you are mentioning a pulse generator... maybe its the same thing haha!, Would you be able to explain? Im still learning. Thank you.
Thanks for the videos. I just received the same gauge today and will be installing it on my 1984 Honda Magna V65. This should be interesting. Thanks again.
Lannister , yes it is. one year later and it's still working as well as the day I installed it. It was a little tricky to connect, but I'm happy with it, especially for the price.
although this video is 7 years old, and you're probably not going to see this comment i want to thank you from the bottom of my heart bro because i struggled for 1-2 straight. THANK YOU
Please forgive my ignorance, i purchased the speedo recently and from your video, i can know where to connect the rpm and memory wire. Can u guide me on where to connect each and every rest of wires.
Every thing works now but still trying to figure out wheel science. I have 21" rim and 4 numbers on menu 1-- 2999 being the highest. Also have 2 magnets on. Anyone have any input or a copy of a manual?
Would this work on a 2006 Yamaha Fz6? I bought it but the wiring to it is confusing, does anyone have like a Wiring Diagram that can help pinpoint which cable goes to what for the wiring??
Andrew Nguyen I've been asked this alot lately and when I bought the guage they never had a legit wiring diagram. I will post another video in the near future with a wiring diagram
hello. i hear you talking about a manual. only thing appearing on the qr code scan is a netpage with faulty color codes :-). where did you fetch the manual? have a pdf you can send?
Hi I have a yamaha xs 850 the triple, can you tell me were I have to connect the wire for the rpm engine?? you use a black wire around the cable coils on the left side, so, where you connect the wire black??, which wire of the nine pins connector you use?? it's a big problem for me......many tanks
hey man, how far or close is your sensor to the magnets when it's spinning. just wondering how far apart they can be.. having a hard time finding a good spit for my magnets..
i have a honda cbr600 , i have connect the signal wire of the original gauge but don't go, i would try to connect to pickup cable, but wich wire, i have 4 of it??? can u help me???
which wire is for the rpms? my wiring diagram is total shit lol ive got my signals, lights, and gear indicator sorted, and ill ground the fuel wire. it says has low oil alarm but not seeing that anywhere
I'm having trouble with this guage. I get a reading when I connect to my pickup coil, but it's way high and ratio is off. if I switch to 4 cylinder, it's a little closer at idle, but still off and ratio I think. Any chance you could take a look at my wiring diagram and point me the right way?
@DRugfree1987, how did you get your speedometer to function properly? mine bounces around until i hit 20mph then just shows 7mph.. i have three magnets and the sensor is roughly 6mm away..
Hello its posted allready but here are the collors licht Bleu= winker Right Red = Memory + Bleu White = feul level Brown = day beam Black = switched Power dark Bleu= High beam Orange = winker Right Green Black = negatieve purple Black = rpm White yellow = neutral light myself having troubles to with the rpm tryed everything and nothing works
how do determine how far away from center to place the speedometer sensor. the rest of it makes sense with the tire size and number of magnets but the farther from center the sensor is the longer it will take the slower it should read, so is there a spec. on how far from center it should be to read properly?
pretty sure it doesn't matter. if you have one magnet and the wheel turns once. the sensor will pick up one rotation no matter where you put. but that just my logic on it. manual never said where it needs to be.
As the OP said, it doesn't matter. You need to configure your front wheel circumference (in MM) in the service menu, and it's determining speed by counting wheel revolutions times configured circumference. It'll take the same amount of time for the magnet to go around close to the axle or far away, as 1 revolution of the wheel is 1 revolution of the wheel. You're needlessly complicating it; a magnet towards the outside of the wheel will travel faster and further, but it'll pass the sensor (once per revolution) just as many times no matter where it is.
Only (minor) thing about putting magnets on the wheel is the closer to the axle the less it will throw off wheel balance. Chances are you won't even notice it. Other than that it doesn't matter where on the wheel the magnets are placed. The correct tire size is important to the computer counting so it knows that one magnet is spinning one time in XXXX amount of distance. The sensor doesn't care if the magnet travels a one inch circle for the tire to cover it's diameter in distance or if it takes a 20 inch circle to cover given tire diameter in distance. Now if the magnets starts traveling faster than the wheel they are attached to you have major problems.
I am unable to get the battery light to quit flashing. Anyone have an answer to where it should hook into? Just installed this on my 94 Virago 750. Made my own fuse box for it as well.
hello I bought it. but I have a problem I can not put the engine speed, it works everything else belonging tours ... I have a transal XL600 ... how can I solve my problem? thank you
did you ever get the rpm to reset to zero?, mine did the same thing. any other tips with hooking it up, im putting it on a nighthawk 750 and having a heck of a time
Do you have any suggestions if I can't locate the pulse generator on my single cylinder. Do you think I just wrap it around ignition coil then. Since the speedometer ships with a single cylinder already programmed. Please and thanks.
Thanks. Though being mines a 2016 engine and correct me anyone if I'm wrong all I would have is CDI the ignition coil so.. I wonder if I would get a reading on the ignition coil? you just wrapped a wire around this wire off the pulse generator or did you tap into the wire?
Hey brother I just installed this meter on my friend's bike today but Rpm meter is not working, could you please help me out. Bike is Royal Enfield classic 500 Regards Vivek
I have one that looks exactly the same... Your video really helped with the rpm and speedo and I am almost set... Except when you turn the bike on with the button press I get ccc 000 (I can change the 0s but not anything else) and I can't change the number of cylinders... is there a trick to get to those settings?
How did you get the fuel gauge to stop blinking. I have this going on a 1986 Radian and it doesn't have a fuel level sensor, and from what I thought neither does your bike :) Any help would be appreciated!
Emil Larsen someone posted the color codes in the comments. but I've heard there has been a change in wire colors. try contacting the seller you should of received one with your guage.
fitted mine no probs but struggled with rpm, wired rpm wire to engine sensor off ecu where on diagram for bike two wires go to crank sensor and didn't work on one but hey presto runs fine off other wire besides too high, i originally went off negative on a coil which didnt work...... my bike is a 92 triumph 900, only prob its a triple so revs are way out as theres more magnets on flywheel but just built a flip flop circuit to halve pulse signal all the best everyone heres link i found to build www.bimmerforums.com/forum/showthread.php?1936419-All-V8-swappers-1-00-tach-adapter-details-on-running-the-tach
@DRugfree1987 Hi there, i know you've been helping all the guys with feedback and video updates regarding this speedometer, but i'm still having problems with mine, i have all the lights and speed running except for rpm.. my bike is a yamaha xjr 1200cc from 1998 and i don't know how to wire or where to connect the rpm wire in order to get a pulse/reading, i now that the rpm wire from the speedometer is the PURPLE and i've tried to wire almost everywhere and still no pulse (i tried to roll it on the spark cable and got a reading but very unstable), can you please help me with this?? also i've tried finding someone with a yamaha and this specific speedometer but didn't find anyone, only honda's and so... appreciate all the help you can give, thanks!!
Hello, sorry for the late reply, yes i have a wiring diagram but i can't seem to find the "pulse generator" like the example you showed in your video.. can you please give me your email or any other easier way of contacting you?? many thanks
Tero Rantanen what are you grounding it to? sometimes parts on the bike are insulated so it won't make a good ground. guage works off resistance. more resistance lower the fuel level, less resistance higher the fuel level. grounding that wire to the frame should give you a full tank reading. unless you have a defective guage
I lead the ground wire to frame and i try even to wire it straight to battery negative. Same reasult, the meter shows always empty. I tried also to lead the wire to postitive +12, then the meter shows full but the whole meter act a little funky.
DRugfree1987 i know but i want to use this corretly. I have bought a fuel level sensor. But i cant connetc it. The fuel level sensor has a green and a blue cable and i tried any option but when the tank is empty it shows full. And if i fill a little fuel it starts flashing.
конкретно этот прибор не работает от катушки. видишь чувак к генератору импульсов подоткнул, он заработал. этих приборов есть 3 вида, есть те которые работают от катушки, а есть те которые нет. здесь прибор хуй знает подо что предназначен, я такой же купил, но от катушки он не пашет.
я разобрался как его оживить, но показания показывает не совсем те. схем вот starrymoto.pl/index.php/problemy/6-sygnal-rpm. у меня вот как работает vk.com/videos336838871?section=album_1
what year? Just finished installing this gauge on my 94 Virago 750. Have everything hooked in but the speed sensor as of right now. Ended up unpinning and repining the main connector on the gauge to work with the Virago's harness.
hi. are you sure that connect the rpm wire to the same rpm wire of the virago? i try it some times but doesn´t works. I only read the rpm if i connect the rpm wire to the positive sparkplug, the problem is that the spark plug goes down and doesn´t works. Could you contact or take a pinture? thanks.
Jaime Netma yes I did. Make sure you also have the ground hooked up. Trying to upload a pic for you. I just re pinned the harness to fit in the stock harness... I'll make a UA-cam video with the wire diagram and the pin connections. Any luck on the fuel gauge stop flashing?
Only knowledgable can do that i also had universal speedo not same brand but theissue is the same i did diy dissasemble pulling it out the needle and put it in the right place then put a little glue the reason in mine is the needle looses to the pin where it attach and almost my needle dettached to its pin
Kamen Rider the speedometer is glued together. It was a faulty meter so they sent me another one. But I did drill a tiny hole. Pushed it back in place then kept it as spare incase I want to use it for something else
Good thing you still claimed for replacement even you drilled. Here in my country if you did anything to product intentionally and suddenly there is factory defect they will not accept it for warranty even scratch they will say its users fault..
Kamen Rider what part of the speedometer was defective dont you get? The needle went backwards, so the sent me new one. Meaning I have the new one and the faulty one.
Hey @dRugfree1987 I got everything working except the rpm is showing 2x actual rpm. I think I set the cylinders as 2 but my bike is a single cylinder motorcycle Any idea how I can revert back to single cylinder? Thanks for the great video though!
that I don't know. all I know is that the gauge comes preset to one cylinder then wont go back after you change the settings. how do you have the rpm wire installed?
It's because it's designed for a 2 or 4 cylinder bike with "dual fire" ignition. That is, for a 2-cylinder, it's sparking on BOTH cylinders when it needs to spark in one - it's sparking then for the power in one cylinder and exhaust in the other. So the gauge is looking for 2 spark signals per 4 strokes, whereas a single cylinder engine is providing 1 spark signal per 4 strokes - reads twice as high. There ARE adapters to fix this, as "single fire" ignitions have the same problem with the gauges. The gauge does not have built in support for single fire 2 cylinder ignitions or single cylinder engines.
Like so many other, I'm commenting on an old but VERY helpful video! I bought this (or some variation) of this gauge. For reference my bike is a 1984 Honda Magna (VF700C).

is you connect for example the 1st gear pin to ground it will work
Gear indicator will work with negative connection, and not positive connection as described in the really bad China manual.
@DRugfree1987 Hi there, i know you've been helping all the guys with feedback and video updates regarding this speedometer, but i'm still having problems with mine, i have all the lights and speed running except for rpm.. my bike is a yamaha xjr 1200cc from 1998 and i don't know how to wire or where to connect the rpm wire in order to get a pulse/reading, i now that the rpm wire from the speedometer is the PURPLE and i've tried to wire almost everywhere and still no pulse (i tried to roll it on the spark cable and got a reading but very unstable), can you please help me with this?? also i've tried finding someone with a yamaha and this specific speedometer but didn't find anyone, only honda's and so... appreciate all the help you can give, thanks!!
Big Fish do you have a wiring diagram for the bike? does the bike have cdi ignition?
Hello, sorry for the late reply, yes i have a wiring diagram but i can't seem to find the "pulse generator" like the example you showed in your video.. can you please give me your email or any other easier way of contacting you?? many thanks
Hey there, i have the exact same Problem with my Yamaha XJR 1200 from 1998,
Have you fixed it meanwhile ?
hi. my fuel gauge is always full even its almost empty... need help
How did you connected the wire my is always blinking
qualcuno sa come collegare il filo rpm sul suzuki intruder 800 del 1994
Hi. My fuel gauge is always empty even when i connect it straight to ground..? how it should be wired?
Tero Rantanen what are you grounding it to? sometimes parts on the bike are insulated so it won't make a good ground. guage works off resistance. more resistance lower the fuel level, less resistance higher the fuel level. grounding that wire to the frame should give you a full tank reading. unless you have a defective guage
I lead the ground wire to frame and i try even to wire it straight to battery negative. Same reasult, the meter shows always empty. I tried also to lead the wire to postitive +12, then the meter shows full but the whole meter act a little funky.
Tero Rantanen I would contact your buyer. and try and get a replacement. I had to do the same when my tach shifted backwards
Ok, thanks for the help. Not so suprised that the meter never worked. Chinese quality never lets you down :D
Where did you mount the speedometer sensor?
Kevin Barillas check out the other video. I made a bracket for it then put the magnets on the disk
DRugfree1987 cool thank you! Did you leave the speedo hub on the axle or replace it with some kinda of a spacer?
Kevin Barillas i left the hub.
Could you tell me how did you use the fuel sensore?
If you want it to stop flashing. Run it the bare metal. Ground the wire to the frame and the gauge will think the tank is full
DRugfree1987 i know but i want to use this corretly. I have bought a fuel level sensor. But i cant connetc it. The fuel level sensor has a green and a blue cable and i tried any option but when the tank is empty it shows full. And if i fill a little fuel it starts flashing.
Anyone have trouble with power drain
К какому выводу катушки подключается тахометр?
конкретно этот прибор не работает от катушки. видишь чувак к генератору импульсов подоткнул, он заработал.
этих приборов есть 3 вида, есть те которые работают от катушки, а есть те которые нет. здесь прибор хуй знает подо что предназначен, я такой же купил, но от катушки он не пашет.
я разобрался как его оживить, но показания показывает не совсем те. схем вот starrymoto.pl/index.php/problemy/6-sygnal-rpm. у меня вот как работает vk.com/videos336838871?section=album_1
I can get bike to start but it dies when you give it gasIf it doesn't die it sputters and pops out of carb
sounds like your main jet needs to be cleaned out or replaced. also could be a air leak somewhere along the boot of the carb
I haven't torn into a carb before
Do you know of anyone that can work on this for me
How much would you charge to do this for me
having trouble with the rpm reading in mi virago 750 anybody with the solution
what year? Just finished installing this gauge on my 94 Virago 750. Have everything hooked in but the speed sensor as of right now. Ended up unpinning and repining the main connector on the gauge to work with the Virago's harness.
1981
I wired mine directly into the wire of the stock tach.
hi. are you sure that connect the rpm wire to the same rpm wire of the virago? i try it some times but doesn´t works. I only read the rpm if i connect the rpm wire to the positive sparkplug, the problem is that the spark plug goes down and doesn´t works. Could you contact or take a pinture? thanks.
Jaime Netma yes I did. Make sure you also have the ground hooked up. Trying to upload a pic for you. I just re pinned the harness to fit in the stock harness...
I'll make a UA-cam video with the wire diagram and the pin connections.
Any luck on the fuel gauge stop flashing?
Realign the needle
Kamen Rider and how would someone do that? Doesn't matter they sent me a new one
Only knowledgable can do that i also had universal speedo not same brand but theissue is the same i did diy dissasemble pulling it out the needle and put it in the right place then put a little glue the reason in mine is the needle looses to the pin where it attach and almost my needle dettached to its pin
Kamen Rider the speedometer is glued together. It was a faulty meter so they sent me another one. But I did drill a tiny hole. Pushed it back in place then kept it as spare incase I want to use it for something else
Good thing you still claimed for replacement even you drilled. Here in my country if you did anything to product intentionally and suddenly there is factory defect they will not accept it for warranty even scratch they will say its users fault..
Kamen Rider what part of the speedometer was defective dont you get? The needle went backwards, so the sent me new one. Meaning I have the new one and the faulty one.
hi. my fuel gauge is always full even its almost empty... need help
war 24/7 fuel gauge works off resistance. no resistance fuel guage is full. what is the fuel wire hooked up to?
Hey @dRugfree1987 I got everything working except the rpm is showing 2x actual rpm. I think I set the cylinders as 2 but my bike is a single cylinder motorcycle Any idea how I can revert back to single cylinder? Thanks for the great video though!
that I don't know. all I know is that the gauge comes preset to one cylinder then wont go back after you change the settings. how do you have the rpm wire installed?
It's because it's designed for a 2 or 4 cylinder bike with "dual fire" ignition. That is, for a 2-cylinder, it's sparking on BOTH cylinders when it needs to spark in one - it's sparking then for the power in one cylinder and exhaust in the other. So the gauge is looking for 2 spark signals per 4 strokes, whereas a single cylinder engine is providing 1 spark signal per 4 strokes - reads twice as high. There ARE adapters to fix this, as "single fire" ignitions have the same problem with the gauges.
The gauge does not have built in support for single fire 2 cylinder ignitions or single cylinder engines.
Do you have diagram?
