Title: How to disassemble a speedo for K-Pipe 125
Post by: baskervi on February 02, 2021, 11:05:50 PM

We have a speedometer that isn't working, and I suspect that if I can pull this apart, all I need to do is clean the connections. However, I don't see any screws holding this together, nor can I find any videos for this speedo. Can anyone give me a pointer? Thanks

Is this a cable operated mechanical speedometer?

No, it's not a mechanical speedo - it's LCD. The problem is that the display doesn't present any digits, and it might take cleaning the contacts to make it function.

The two halves are glued together, but I got them apart with heat and patience. The circuit board is completely destroyed by corrosion, plus a capacitor is blown in half. Are there any resources for purchasing need speedos for Kymcos?

@baskervi,
if you are not in a real hurry to assemble your ride, see an electronic repair shop and additionally check all 2nd hand part platforms like ebay, etc. Somewhere for sure is your spare hanging around.

I must be doing something wrong.  I cannot find the K-pipe listed anywhere in their parts section and wonder about the cost of a new speedometer assembly?
