    Trip Meter Doesnt Work

    Hi Guy's
    Does anyone know if the trip meter can be fixed on the gauges for the GSX 1100 EZ 82, 83 models. Mine won't reset when the button is pushed in. I checked the forum and this seems to be a common problem but i couldn't actually see if anyone managed to find a solution. I have a faulty fuel gauge so was hoping to use the trip meter to monitor my fuel/mileage.

    Cheers

    Anyway you could get some lube inside it? Try pushing the knob in as far as you can after a lube. Worked on one of my other bikes.

      Yes...shoot some PB Blaster or other penetrating oil in there. Push the button in and out and maybe tap the speedo as your button is out. Vibrate it loose and maybe the lube will take effect.

      Can you feel resistance as you just start to push the button or is it free and no resistance?

      I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.
