    I had my instrument cluster go dead off and on today, finally dead. Also lost my headlight, blinkers, and horn. At least the starter and kill switch work, LOL. Looked for a thread on this but didn't see any. It is the 630, about 3200 miles on the bike. I don't know if it might be a loose connection or a fuse? Don't have a good selection of tools where I am at, but I do have internet! So thought I would do some searching on here before I run home tomorrow.

    I saw where some of the 610's required a reset, but I thought the 630 was a different instrument, plus all the other things not working. They did come on a few times during the ride, so I am thinking loose connection, just wondering if anyone else has seen this already?

    Thanks

    It sounds like a loose connection, chaffed or broken loom. On the latter, my bike was delivered in such a state that I had to go through it from one end to the other to avoid problems down the track.

    The best I can suggest is to go through it very carefully with a wiring diagram and a test light or multimeter.

    I'm thinking it is in the Speedo unit itself, which seems to be more than just that (like a control unit, a lot of wires going in). I diconnected the battery, that didn't work. Fuse is fine. Everything is working at the moment, but not when you first turn the ignition on, but after you start the bike. Low fuel light stays on, blinkers operate, but much faster than normal, horn is working, but can't hear it with earplugs in, very faint.
    Tried all the connections up front, all seem good. Haven't taken the tank off to see if there are any connections under there.
    I thought I saw where someone else had strange problems with the speedo unit? I would take it to the dealer, but they are 3 hours away, and the warranty is up (May)

    Thanks, that looks like a nightmare. According to the dealer, this instrument is different than the 610s, which he called junk. Said this one is better.
    I haven't found the problem yet, haven't had time to tear the bike down and check all the connections. I'm hoping that's all it is...

    I agree!
    The speedo has nothing to do with the operation of the headlight/blinkers/horn.
