Title: Super 9 LC tachometer not working.
Post by: WIkid on August 13, 2015, 01:04:19 AM
Ayyyyyyy.

Just picked up this sweet almost new (700km!) super 9 LC the other day.

I got her running no problem but the tachometer isn't working.

Is there a common failure point on these I should check? 

I am embarrassed to say out of the hundreds of scooters I have owned this is one of the only ones with a tach, so my experience is limited.

Thanks.

That's a problem a few have been chasing down.  I'm not sure if they ever figured it out...  I'm lucky,  I'm at 25000km and mine is still rocking!

My tach was broken (s9 l/c 2002) i fitted a new one from a kymco vitality. Lost the ability to see rpm but now it works...

Have 03 Super 9 LC and tach doesn't work.  It's getting power and needle moves around some, but is erratic.  Temp high warning light randomly lights up and goes out, so that's an issue with this instrument too.  I am not smart enough to trouble shoot mine.

I think maybe just a bad connection/ short somewhere.  I plan to check wiring connections next time I have plastic off.  I would buy a new instrument, but don't want to install new one, only to have it do the same thing because the problem is somewhere between the sending impulse and the tach.

Have 05 Super 9 LC and tach works great.  Cheers
