doc47 Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Didn't Marty Robbins sing that in 1957? The Dakar has had a bunch of hiccups since I brought it out of Atlanta. Speedo quit. Then the tach quit. And the low fuel light quit. And I damn near quit! But, undaunted, (well, I was a LITTLE daunted!)I took the moral high road and refused to deal with the problems. However, eventually I ran into an afternoon (today) when I was too bored to avoid the issues. Found a loose main connector at the back of the instrument cluster. Installed a replacement used speedo cable......and everything works!! I'm one happy dude! Excelsior! Onward and upward! Link to comment
