    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.

Intermittent Fuel Gauge

Hey All,

So...my fuel gauge is giving me issues. It totally quit working a few months ago, and now it sometimes starts to work while I'm riding and then shuts back off. I'm guessing something is loose....can you give me an idea where to look to check the connections?

Thanks,

The obvious connections are under the gas tank. Two bullet types. However I suspect that those are OK and it is the PC board ( part of the sending unit inside of the tank) that the tank rheostat is manufactured on. It tends to warp and give the gauge fits (like mine)
 
POS......I had them quit all together and found the warped boards too. So I just bent the slider arm thing over so it had positive contact full range of its travel.
