DGV Acumen gear indicator

#1 Post by blenks » Sat Oct 31, 2009 6:19 pm

Just fitted DGV. Followed instructions posted by aspguitar. All good until it came to the unit learning the gears. Once all wiring is done you have to calibrate the gear selection to the DGV. Unfortunately I have tried countless times to do this but the unit just displays a flashing number 1. It should move on to the other gears one by one but not happeing.

Anybody else fitted one? Any suggestions?

Hi! all,
just a quick note further to my last. I have fitted a few of these gear indictors to various different bikes now including my current Falco, a Blackbird and a CB1000R.
If anyone needs any help, please don't hesitate to ask.

Thanks alot Clint and Ade. between the 3 of us and Martin Poll' site (workshop manual for wiring diagram) I managed to get it sorted this morning. I had one of the DGV wires connected to pin 12 but should have been pin 10. Once I found the problem it was sorted and rebuilt in 30 mins.

Cracking little item, would be ideal for anyone new to V twins.
