Title: Any special way to reinstall speedo sender unit?
Post by: Eisenfaust on April 26, 2005, 01:14:40 PM
So, when I reinstalled my front wheel after doing my fork seals, I must have installed the speedometer sender unit improperly... as now I have no speed reading (or odometer function!)

Now, the unit has two little prongs that would seem to get pushed around by matching tabs in the wheel hub. I was pretty careful to make sure that everything lined up correctly, but I obviously did something wrong.

Should I just pull the wheel again and re-seat the unit? Anything to be especially aware of?

Hmm, I don't know that the wheel would go on right if you had it on wrong. Make sure it's screwed in on the other end, at the speedo. Other than that though, I guess you would have to take it off and see if maybe something broke or got bent...

Also be sure the cable is seated all the way in.
