Oli Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 Hi, My girlfriend owns a DT125 2004 model. She has had the bike for a couple of years now and just recently a LED above the 60mph mark on the speedo has light up. This has never happend before. Please can someone tell me what the light is for and if it is anything that needs fixing? Thanks in advance.
Moderator Airhead Posted January 25, 2011 Moderator Posted January 25, 2011 But I dont know of any led's in a DTR speedo! are you confusing led with lamp?
Oli Posted January 25, 2011 Author Posted January 25, 2011 thanks for the reply . It is a led light actually on the speedo dial. There are no symbols next to it. Its not one of the warning lights either e.g. neutral, oil etc. I will try and get a picture . Basically a led light inside the speedo directly above the 60mph marking on the speedo has come on. Do you think its a temperature light or a restrictor light because it is over the 60mph mark? The strange thing is is that this the first time it has come on in 3 years. thanks

Oli Posted January 25, 2011 Author Posted January 25, 2011 Thank you very much, much appreciated. I'l make sure the water is topped up and theres no leaks and throw some coolant in there too . Thanks again
Oli Posted January 25, 2011 Author Posted January 25, 2011 That's exactly what it is . Thanks so much!
Moderator Airhead Posted January 25, 2011 Moderator Posted January 25, 2011 Ahh yes mine doesnt have that, thinking about it the water temperature sybol is a clue eh?
Vez Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 Ahh yes mine doesnt have that, thinking about it the water temperature sybol is a clue eh? I prefer the gauge type you have on yours Paul, at least you know its working when it moves, where as the LED gives no clue
JacksmithxD Posted April 14, 2011 Posted April 14, 2011 Found it quite normal if you've de-restricted it, usually comes on, not properly just faint off and on. (It happened when i did about 70-80) I had a DT X 07, along with my mate. Both did the same thing, i don't think it's anything to worry about unless the light stays on constantly once your below 60.
