Help guys, can't get the rpms or fuel gauge to work, installed the plug and play kit...... Any help would be appreciated

Welcome Mike!

Many members here have installed that kit, hopefully they will help you soon.

Good luck!

Hopefully

karter · December 11th, 2015, 10:48 AM

It's the carb mcarb also

Good luck

Got the rpms working now still can't get the gas gauge working. Also how do you set this thing up to work with the speedo adapter that comes with the pnp kit?

When all on your bike is standard then circumference is 714 and 6 sensor points.
If your front tire is not 110/70 then you must look for the best setting with GPS check, but take the setting before as basic.

karter · December 12th, 2015, 07:33 AM

Great I'll try that setting after work, any ideas on the fuel gauge?

rojoracing53 · December 12th, 2015, 12:38 PM

fuel gauge needs to be plugged in (green/white plug) and the unit need to be set on the correct of two OHM choices. If it's not plugged it I think the fuel display is completely blank like it's missing. If you have it on the wrong setting then it'll rear at like 10% of what it really is so a full tank will read 10% and anything less is empty. I haven't figured out why but in cold weather the fuel gauge reads much lower and seems to have gotten worse over the 80,000 miles I've have the koso. I still love my Koso gauge after 80,000 with no problems.

karter · December 12th, 2015, 12:43 PM

OK so you don't leave the fuel sensor coming from the tank plugged into the actual harness that it was originally in?

rojoracing53 · December 12th, 2015, 12:50 PM

It's been a long time(4 years) since I installed it but that green plug from the bottom of your tank must still be plugged into something for it to read. I imagine since the PnP kit is rather simple the gas tank plug goes to it's oem plug same as before. Like I said I have a green connector plugged into a white connector.

rojoracing53 · December 12th, 2015, 12:52 PM

I could also have the colors mixed up and it's white from the tank and green from the harness

karter · December 12th, 2015, 12:57 PM

Yes I kinda thought with the pnp that the fuel gauge wires would connect to the gauge through the original harness, I may have to try some cutting to fix it, but it's showing up blank like you said

rojoracing53 · December 12th, 2015, 01:05 PM

why would you need to cut anything? unless you've already modified the oem harness in a way you shouldn't have?

karter · December 12th, 2015, 02:07 PM

Is it supposed to be a random green wire from the harness? All I've seen is the 2 big connectors the red power wire and the oil and water sensor wires coming from the pnp kit ? The harness beneath the tank is connected

rojoracing53 · December 12th, 2015, 02:28 PM

I never said anything about wires, I mentioned connectors only. It looks like white from the tank and green from the harness. One pic with the fuel gauge connected and one with it not.

karter · December 13th, 2015, 04:14 AM

I double checked and that harness is connected, tried the 510 and 100 ohm setting, still nothing

Somchai · December 13th, 2015, 05:14 AM

rojoracing53 · December 13th, 2015, 06:19 AM

Maybe you could make sure there is fuel in the bike and measure the ohms coming from the white plug to make sure the bobber in the tank is working. Did you old fuel gauge work?

There is like a 5 second delay after connecting the plugs before you get a reading which caught me off guard one time.

karter · December 13th, 2015, 07:10 AM

Yes the old gauge worked fine, saw on that thread that the fuel sensor doesn't work with the plug and play kit, wonder what genius designed the kit to not use it

rojoracing53 · December 13th, 2015, 08:38 AM

weird because mine works fine with the PnP kit that came with it

rojoracing53 · December 13th, 2015, 08:40 AM

this is who I ordered from years ago http://www.biohazardcycles.com/koso-...ete-kit-08-11/

karter · December 13th, 2015, 09:03 AM

That is strange, I ordered another fuel sending unit just to try it, maybe it will fix it
