2008 joiner renegade t4

[Newfietrucker]

Hello, having trouble with a couple of gauges. I replaced 3 gauges. Oil,fuel,and water temp that gave out the same time. After replacing gauges I noticed now that my speed won't move when I'm driving. Only cycle when I turn key on. And my oil gauge goes all the way up when I turn key on. I think the sensor might be bad. Any idea on the problem I'm having? Tks.

Never had any replys on my problems with my renegade. Found that my oil sending unit was bad. I replaced it and now works. Speed gauge still won't work. Think it might be speed sensor.

I assume you don't an oscilloscope, how about a volt meter that can read frequency, does you tach work? can you swap the plug going to you tach with the speedo plug and see if the input to the tach makes the speedo move as you rev the engine up & down.

Pull the sensor & see if its dirty.

I pulled the speed sensor it looked ok. Sensor still might be bad. Wish I had one to try. For the speed gauge and rpm, when I turn key on the two gauges cycles back and forth showing it works I guess. I thought it be weard that my oil gauge and pressure sending unit, fuel and sending unit , temp gauge give out the same time. All gauges work fine now after replacing them. Just the speed gauge left to fix. Like to have a speed sensor to try to see if that's the trouble.

I have replaced about half my gauges with aftermarket ones, as the stock ones don't last. I bought dual gauges (Pointer/with digital readout) and it's been 8 months, constant riding and no problems.

I wish there was a place close to me for parts. When I need parts I need to order it and it takes a week to get it. And no one around me don't know anything about my renegade and don't want to work on it. So I just try to fix it myself. Learned alot by it.

I have the same issue bud. There's only one good mechanic in all of panama, haha, and he happens to live close to me. But I love tinkering with my machine, so I try to do everything myself.

As for parts, I mail order everything in, and it comes out pretty good. Ebay is my big source for generic stuff, and joyner US for the rest.

Right on. I don't mine picking at my rig either. Not very good at the wiring tho.

Don't feel bad guys, I'm in west central Illinois and I have the same parts service as you do! So far I've mastered my repairs, but I admit no wiring problems. If the diagrams I have are any good, between my son and I, we should get it!
