Guys
My due is the digital dash version - can anyone tell me where the indicator relay is as the indicators stay on all the time (like low battery or poor earth). The manual shows it hangs on the battery carrier -surprise its not there!! Is it an internal part of the digital dash??
second question. As with all the dues, the speedo reads allsorts but it has become worse since I changed the wheels for BSTs. Should any of the disc studs have one of those tiny magnets in as a trigger for the speedo pickup. Im wondering if it dropped out when I took the discs apart!
cheers

I'm sure you will have checked Nige, but when you took the discs off I am really really assuming that you put the right hand side disc back on the right, and the left on the left, as your pickup will be just on one side, just check the other disc and see whats on that. You never know, some folk may even be known to cross battery terminals over the wrong way when putting a battery back in their rush to reassemble 
Other than that wait a week as I know theres a newbie coming to the Forum with a brand new Due thats due next week...  |

I once recharged a dead flat battery 'backwards' . In my haste i connected the battery charger arse about and because the battery was dead flat, there were no sparks to alert me that it might be arse about. Charged fine but then positive terminal was negative and vise versa. Had to completely drain and recharge the right way. No problem. Quite funny really. No upside down ausie jokes please

Doubt very much it will be an integral part of the dash.
Even Bimota wouldn't be that stupid............
check it's not part of the dash
Want me to nip over and have a look?

| My indicator relay is by the battery under the tank, so if yours isn't there, don't know what to suggest. Defo not integral to the dash. |

If it's not there then maybe that's why the indicators don't flash
