Why is my Speedo not working on my 2005 Chopper?

I have a 2005 Chopper and my speedo will go thru the diagnostics when I first turn the ignition on. I can then push the button to switch from odometer to tripometer with no problems, however when I start the bike, the speedo does not move any when riding and I can’t switch from odometer to tripometer any more. Everything else works just fine.

What to do if your speedometer is not working?

First, lift the car wheels from the ground. Then, turn on the ignition and back probe the sensor with a voltmeter. Next, spin one of the drive wheels by chocking the rest. This will allow the vehicle speed sensor to rotate. Finally, check if the voltage reading is between 1 and 10 volts. If not, the sensor will need to be replaced to fix the issue.

What happens when an ignition switch wears out?
