Posted October 10, 201311 yr Hello I need help, I have a 1996 Lanza DT 230 that sat for about a year and a half. Now the speedometer doesn't work. There is power to the display but it just says 0. I know rats ate the wire to my kill switch and the oil line from the pump to the carbuerator and I suspect they ate something related to the speedometer but I don't know where to look. Can anyone offer some suggestions? Thanks!
October 10, 201311 yr Moderator I assume there will be an electric cable and sensor attached to the wheel hub, is there...is damaged? Thats about all I can suggest
October 10, 201311 yr Author Sorry, I didnt know where to post my question. The only thing coming off of the wheel that I can see is a hydraulic line for the front brake
October 10, 201311 yr There must be something connecting the front wheel to the clock! a wire or cable, other wise how would it work? if you can't find the end at the wheel then trace the cable from the clocks to give you some idea of what should be there. As Airhead say's at the very least there must be a sensor!
October 10, 201311 yr Moderator correct me if I'm wrong but how could it be associated with the gearbox output shaft, how could that work if you changed sprocket sizes at the gearbox or wheel?
October 11, 201311 yr correct me if I'm wrong but how could it be associated with the gearbox output shaft, how could that work if you changed sprocket sizes at the gearbox or wheel? Thats the bitch about it you realy cant my bandit is set up that way so when i re geared it I had to get someone to ride beside me and signal me when I was at 50-60-80-100kmph(as thoes are the most popular speeds in canada) and mark the speedo in my mind. There are speedo correctors but I didn't care. Just like most new cars if you change the wheel size you have to reprogram the speedo to suite the size of wheel. EDIT I also clock less miles now per year
