Title: 2009 M696 Gauge fuse kept being blown Post by: gogowanda on November 14, 2013, 01:07:59 PM Hi tech heads, help me out here pls.
I have a 2009 Monster 696 and after putting on some aftermarket parts (TPO Stacks), my gauge is no longer working. I checked the fuse and it's blown. So I plugged in a new one sure enough it's blown right away. I unplugged the gauge and tested the fuse socket, there is no voltage reading. The bike still starts fine, just no idea how fast i'm going! so...does it mean the gauge itself is fried? is there a way I can find out for sure? If it's broken, I'll probably replace it with an aftermarket one, what would you guys recommend? thanks!

I guess my question now is how can i test the dash without another 696 around... Title: Re: 2009 M696 Gauge fuse kept being blown - works now!
