Trip Meter issues

[dmoon64]

Recent trip back from the Guzzi dealer should have been around 70-75 miles. Trip meter showed 37. I removed the two nuts behind the speedo and the tripmeter reset knob, but the guage is held in by something else.

 

How hard is it to get this thing out and to look inside? I did a search but all I find is talk about the odometer and speedo.

 

Thanks,

There are discussions somewhere about people experiencing different measurements between their odometers and their trip meters and bizarre theories that parts have been mixed up and some mph clocks give kph readings.

 

As far as I remember, the clock comes out ok, but you won't be able to get at anything without prying the metal bevel lip and removing the glass. The hard bit will be getting it back together.

Crap.

 

The odometer went tits up this morning. On the plus side I can keep the miles off, but I'm getting lousy gas mileage.

If your '03 has ITI instruments, disassembly is really easy. Push on the little pins on the underside of the rim to pop off the rim. Remove the glass, and it all falls out in your hand.
