2013 PCX150 Speedometer not working

Post by Yellowpiper »

My 2013 PCX150 black: the speedometer is not working. All other instruments work. Sometimes is shows 150 KM, sometimes 60 sometime 0 km.

Any suggestions

You need one of the whisperers to answer your question, but it sounds to me like you have one of two things going one.
1. The connection is loose either at the back of the control panel or where it attaches to the panel.
2. Vs sensor problem or the connection to it.
Will one of our better mechanics please jump in now?

I can't help with the fault, but getting a photo of it showing 150km/hr while riding could elevate you to legend status!

The PCX speedometer is inaccurate anyway, there is no use for it. Get a gps speedometer.
Everything looks better from the inside of a motorcycle helmet...

A photo is definitely a good idea doing 150 while parked in the driveway and having the speed working albeit not accurate is a bonus. Hate when it's not 100 %. Any help where the is sensor for the speedo, is it in rear hub ? Difficult to get inside to track the cable from meter, to control box to sensor.
Any guidance would be helpful

Send me the photo (preferably on a road) and I'll Photoshop the rest for you :D

My speedo over-reads by exactly 10%. Would be nice if it was spot-on, but I've learned to compensate in my head quite well (I just add 10 to the posted limit and I know I'm unlikely to ever get a ticket).

This photo is me riding my PCX ...
