Does anybody know why my tach started to behave like that when I'm reaching high speed? it then stays like that or completely blank when I slow down.

Tachometer Behaves bad
Re: Tachometer Behaves bad
Were you really running on low fuel or was your fuel meter misbehaving, too?
I would assume it's either a loose cable connection or broken cable somewhere, or your entire unit is faulty... When did this behaviour start? Did you do any repairs/disassembling prior to it? Is it only at high speeds (if so, at which speed approximately does it start) or also at high rpm in lower gear?

Re: Tachometer Behaves bad
Thanks, I think I found the cause of the problem but I need to investigate more.
The fuel was really low, it's not related, the gauge works fine.
I think the problem is that I overloaded the bike with too much accessories and the fog lights I have draw too much current, I connected all accessories to the Ignition fuse.
It seemed to happen also on High RPM, not only High speed.

I disconnected the fog lights and connected the camera, temp and voltage gauge and usb charger to the tail fuse, but problem still remains. When I use high RPM it goes crazy.
Re: Tachometer Behaves bad
Did you check all the cable connections in the wiring harness?

Re: Tachometer Behaves bad
No. But it's strange that it works fine when I disconnect my accessories. Maybe I have a current leak somewhere because of them which affect the tacho. I will check.
Re: Tachometer Behaves bad
Looks like it still has the problem even without accessories. So I guess it is a bad connection to the ECU.
