Battery leakage in instrument cluster

[Swissx11 1]

Hi Guys,

My bike has been draining itself since I swapped out the engine over the winter, and with the help of a workshop manual I downloaded, I think I have the problem isolated to the red/green wire going into the back of the speedometer (0.5 mA with it connected and 0A without).

Has anyone had a similar problem before, or have any ideas for fixing it?

Or do I try to fit a universal instrument cluster?

Thanks in advance.

Have you trapped and shorted a wire somewhere?

Always a possibility of course, but Im fairly sure the harness wasnt damaged during the swap over.

Have you connected the correct plug to the correct sensors on the engine ?

Yes they are all good, Im fairly sure its the clocks.

I'd try and find the short or whatever. Fitting aftermarket clocks is a real rabbit hole, the examples I've seen haven't been fantastic.

I have sourced a replacement set of clocks for not too bad money, hopefully that sorts it, thanks lads 👍
