Please help speedo issues

[tag559]

So I filled the bike up today, looks like I got about 50 miles lol
That's not the problem I have a question about though.
So I reset the trip and I don't know how I did it but it displayed "auto" then "pulse" then "adjust". After that speedo doesn't work and if it does move it's on throttle not movement... lol when I got it home I shut it off now it says I'm doing 40 when I roll her and I travel 10th of a mile in about 5feet .... Please help

• Most speedometers returned for warranty are not truly bad. Connection problems again
are the major source of problem. (Including circuit board attached to bottom of
speedometer).
• If speedo has power related problems, it will go back into self-test mode and the
odometer will read “TEST” and the needle will sweep across the speedo.
• If you have a speedo sensor/ connection failure, the speedo will freeze up at the speed
that was indicating at the point of failure. This is typically a connection

Sounds like you need to do a calibration on the speedo though

SPEEDO CALIBRATION
With ignition off, depress black button located on the face of the speedometer. Depressing black
button down, turn ignition switch on.
When P-U-L-S-E comes into the readout window release the button.
Digits will start flashing beginning on the right side and continuing to the left. When the digit
that needs to be changed flashes depress the black button to change it.
The following are the numbers that need to be displayed to correctly calibrate the speedometer:
· ProSport, Vintage Sports, Pitbull, Vintage Classics and Pro 18's: 065,500
This number corresponds to the larger 70 tooth rear pulley.
· For all models of Softtails and any others that may have the smaller 65 tooth rear pulley, the
corresponding number is: 060,000
· For all models equipped with a BAKER 6-speed transmission the number is: 049,000
The speedometer display will reset it's self with a flashing “T”. Then return to the original
odometer reading.
To toggle between trip and odometer, depress the black button with the switch on.

so if your speedo said 49466 with the baker tranny then I need to change the numbers to 049000? Any idea what this will change on the speedo. It hs been not showing speed lately at the firtst start up, let bike warm up turn off then restart then speedo works fine. Also bike has new battery and everything else is working just fine.

thanks Jason

hey Kapt I must be doing something wrong. I tried holding black odometer button down while turning ign on, but it never goes to the calibration number or starts blinking so that you can change them. Am I doing something wrong?
