Hi

So I'm finishing the last few pieces of my project, and I'm having trouble with the rev counter doesn't work on my new Koso DB01-RN speedo. 
I have connected the two wires which are supposed to be for the revcounter brown/red on koso, and black/blue from the BMW. 

I haven't measured if there is any poweroutput on the black/blue wire from the BMW (Pin16), and unfortunately I'm not able to do today, since it is not on my address.. From what I have read around the forum, people don't really seem to have any problems with the revcounter on a new speedo. But I'm wondering if it is a known problem to have a loose connection around that wire?

The original cluster worked all fine when I split the bike apart and it is on a 1987 k100 RT

HI!

Have you checked the plug from the ignition module, ( the smallest one, not the big metallic one) i remember to have a similar issue when installed the minimotogadget speedo, and it was a rusted pin , the black\blue wire from the coil was so dirty that didnt work properly , and the signal from rpm didnt worked.

clean all the connectors and grounds well !!

cheers

 Of course that could be the problem! I will check the connector when I pull the tank of soon and when it is of, i will cut off those fairing mounts they annoy my mind too.  affraid Trouble with the revcounter on koso DB01-RN speedo  Img_1112
