I've checked the FAQ & searched the archive. I found bare wires above the sensor connector so I taped them. Male and female contacts appear ok, they're both shiny & clean. After re-connecting the harness, the speedo will work ok for about 3 minutes, then quit. It does this on the lift as well as on the road (I had to shut it off for an hour to retest). Should these symptoms lead me to the head, wiring, or sensor as the next step? Will the sensor work for a while, then stop? Would having the wires bare and I assume shorting out, damage the sensor?
Thanks.
Marlin
