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!

Daz

My suspicion is you've pinched a wire when you put the stacks on.

The 30A fuse on the starter relay is also blown, my suspicion is when we re-routed the starter relay wire it accidentally shorted to the frame. But would that fry the dash?

I guess my question now is how can i test the dash without another 696 around...

re-routed the wire on the main relay, now everything works. I guess it was some short circuit on the starter relay connectors.
