Clock Speedo and Tach died while riding - adogsnyder99_imp - 06-14-2022

Hi all? Today I was out riding and after hitting a bump my Speedo tach and clock all shut off I tried restarting the bike but nothing. I am wondering what may have caused that and what the fix may be. I’ll add that this is a 2013 cb1100.

The instrument cluster is supplied from fuse D and this fuse also supplies the tail light and an accessory connector inside the headlight bucket, do you have any accessories connected to this 2 pole connector?.



It is the third red 10 A fuse from the right " meterillum "

So if the tail light is out also it is this fuse under the seat.

There may be a reason the fuse disconnected like a short to ground somewhere, you may be able to spot this by watching the harness for possible wear points.

if the tail light is working it could be a black 10 pole connector in the headlight bucket not making good contact.

If that is not the case it is the connector inside the instrument cluster, you may test this by tapping the case and see if the meters come back.

That's a great approach to troubleshooting electrical faults - Get a paper solution first before looking at the bike Idea
