    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Disassembling instrument cluster

The trip odometer on my 82 1100EZ failed to reset at my last gas stop and doesn't want to advance. Was working fine prior to the attempt to reset it. I couldn't find instructions for disassembling the instrument cluster in the manual. Any tips??? Looks like there are 4 rubber covers on the lower/back half that probably cover screws? I'm hoping that taking off the upper half (covering the speedo/tach) will allow me to lubricate the mechanism and getting working again.
 
remove the bezel and then remove the two screws at the back of the bowl ...housing...that holds the gears in and slide the guts out.

Its been years since I opened it, but the 82/83 1100e is a single cluster screwed together, no separate gauges with crimped rings to fight with. Once the cluster is off take out the screws and remove the back.

Memory gets foggy at this point, but I think the gauges are screwed to the front half of the cluster.
 
Thanks. Yeah, I had mine off many many years ago, don't even remember why. And no memory of how it came apart. Ah well, another learning experience :-)

thanks for the replies.
