Hi guys, my friend just brought me a 630 SMS from 2011 with a completely dead dashboard / speedo. Before dying completely, my friend told me that it had condensation under the display and also some function were not always working fine. So I too it off and I wanted to ope it to dry it out and see if I can do something. But I could not crack it open so far... Any advices on how to open it and if its even worth opening it? I have to say, I saw some water drops come out of one hole of one of the small screws... In my opinion there is nothing I can do any more but I need to try. By the way, since I took the speedo off the bike, the bike won't start any more!!! Even if I plug it back in, nothing. The motor rotates, but its not firing. The day before it did run without any issue..... Could there be a link between these 2 issues? I checket the fuses but They are all OK. Need to check the spark plug but I have no tool that fits. Need to borrow it somewhere. Thanks
Had a similar issue. You gotta remove the moisture from the dash. Put the dash in a bag of rice for 5+ days to dry the speedo out. Also blow out the plugs and connectors before re assembling.
Mine died too,came to life a few times and then died again. It can be opened,but its glued together (atleast TE was). Cleaned completely with electrical cleaner and left it open to dry. Works now like it should,with some scars... Its not water tight from under,so moisture can get inside no matter what. 630 does run without speedo,so your symptoms MAY relate to each other. I beat helps....
In facts the case is glued. On this video it seems very easy to open. Mine instead is far from easy to open, I tried but I am worried I could break it if I force it... What I did so far is to take the 4 screws away (small screws on the back). Some moisture came out of one hole.... Then I put it in the rice. This was last Wednesday (4 days ago). I am going to wait 1 week. If it still doesn't work, then I will continue to try and open it. An other option os to give it to some specialist to open it. I will give you an update
