Have had some customers have trouble with the RHK hour meter. They have mentioned that they don't work. Nick, our work experience student this week has done a little research into why this problem has occured. The instructions on the back of the packaging are correct but for those who have a bike with a distributer only. Newer bikes and Japanese bikes will run a coil pack. The wires running into the coil pack don't give enough voltage for the hour meter sensor wire to pick up a reading as to if the bike is running or not. Therefore the hour meter is unable to function correctly.
Below is a step by step guide to installing an RHK hour meter to a coil pack.
1. Remove parts to reveal coil pack |
2. Attach hour meter in desired location with either double sided tape or velcro. |
3. Clean top of motor so it is free from dirt |
4. Run wire to coil pack from hour meter leaving enough wire to be attached to wire harness |
5. Slip down waterproof rubber boot and wrap the hour meter wire around the coil pack 4 times |
