Universal 4 in 1 LCD Gauge Install Moped/Motorcycle

- my friend recently brought over his AmStar Rocky 49cc moped and we ended up installing a cheap LCD gauge cluster that he got from wish. despite its low price point it is actually pretty feature-packed and a speedometer tachometer fuel gauge all built into it along with RGB LED lighting, and it give the bike a cool cyberpunk look.
I got this speedo as a replacement for my 94 CB250, it definitely DOES work.... Sort of. At first the tach was super inaccurate, but in time corrected itself. Also I cant seem to get the MPH setting to stay saved. I can fully configure the speedo properly. But after one or two starts/stops of the bike, it will revert back to KPH. The odometer and trip meter keep the mileage, just the other settings go back to default. The only trick I had found to keep MPH set was to change the light color and save it every time I shut the bike off. Its a bit annoying, but works so I just live with it for now.
Might be a broken gauge u got
@@samgome01 Thanks, the damn thing does work though, the ODO and trip saves without fail! Just the general settings wont save unless I change/set the backlight color each time before I take out my key. I just had a notion earlier that perhaps I need to ground out the fuel gauge wire even though I have no tank sensor. Will give it a try. I may roll the dice on a secondary unit and test your theory either way!
@@AllboroLCD we grounded the fuel gauge as well since the rocky has a mechanical gauge by the filler cap
@@samgome01 I tried grounding the fuel ga wire, still not staying saved. Its such BS too because I cannot find a comparable digi gauge that takes the old school style speedo cable in the same price range. I think I will go ahead and try ONE more of these units. If the new one works, I suppose I could use my drill to set the mileage back proper. I know my way around PCB's and soldering irons, but I dont see how these units open up either.
What frequency did you use for your 250?
Hey man. This video is the only thing I can find. I have bought it on Amazon for my 1982 yamaha xj650. My bike has a speedometer cable already so I would just screw it in the back? Right? And for the wires what plugs in where how do you know where to put them.
Yeah we just screwed it into the cable that was already there i think most of these Chinese bikes use a standard ratio for the speedometer I'm not sure if it is the same for your bike, we did have to figure out what cables where for the wiring though
How did you you connect the rpm
How did you set to mph i tried all settings long press and just switchs to mext number
Does this work with wheel sensor and not cable
How to calibrate it
How did you set it to mph? Iv got same one is it long press to set? Iv tried everything
check the pinned comment? where is that?
thanks you guys actually me out alot.
You actually make no sense
@@jamesthebond0072 lmao 🤣
Did yours come with the bracket to hook onto the handle bar? Mine didn't so I'm looking to find something like the bracket.
Hey there, the gauge doesn't come with a bracket for the handlebars but u can easily use a universal mirror handlebar bracket to place it on
Where does the tachometer wire attach to?
In most cases it's wrapped around the spark plug wire but I had to attach to a lead in my coil
@@samgome01 Thanks.
How do you get the rev counter working correctly?
If you watched the video you'd know
Cant seem to change it to mph, anyone any ideas???
Someone knows the setting for a 26inch wheel?
Can someone pls tell me how to make it tell the speed?
Hi how do you get it to mph???
Check the pinned comment
link to this device - cant find it on amazon
How can i find this gauge on wish?
It's available also in banggood
Aay bro what color did u hook up the green wire to the bike. And what color did u hook up the power to the bike
Green should be negative and black is positive, check with your bikes battery to see if it turns on
Hmmm I wonder if this speedometer can work with a motorized bicycle (i have way to connect the analog cables for my bikes)
It could in theory but I would just use ones that use magnets or ment for bicycles
@@samgome01 i have a way to use analog cable speedometers, but I'll see if I can use the magnet one just in case things go bad
Hi mate, how dis you manage to make the odometer/mileage work on this? Mine doesn’t seem to work and stays at zero
We just stuck the speedometer cable into the back and it started to work
@@CrazyMotorMaster thanks man
Sweep your garage floor. Tree branches, c'mon!
How did you get it to mph!!!!
Did he show us how to get it to mph??

Which odometer cable do you use?
The factory cable that came with the bike
How does the tach cable hookup
We used the bikes negative side of the coil to get a rpm reading
Bikes need a 12v battery for this?
I guessing as long the bike produces enough electric juice to power the gauge it should work, i had times where the battery is dead from sitting around too long so by kick-starting it the bike turns on and so did the gauge
how did you turn off the flashing fuel bar
Grounded the fuel gauge wire
@@CrazyMotorMaster can you post how to change it from kph to mph please? A few subscribers are asking. Thanks
@@leroijr407 check the pinned comment
Yo man how did you get it to read mph?
Yea it reads in mph
He was asking what you did to make it read MPH.
@@CrazyMotorMaster they come set in kph. How did he change it. Doesnt come with directions but they say it does both.
Did everyone find how to change to mph
did you have to change tech signal for 1 cylinder ? thx
I believe there was a setting for 2 stroke or four, I'll check later in the gauge
@@samgome01 I hooked it up, but I can't get a signal from the coil, I even try wrapping the spark plug wire, still don't work
@@kronickob we tried wrapping it to the spark plug wire as well but we later use the bike coil, u may need to trace where the spark plug wire hook up to and try different contact spot till u get a signal
@@samgome01 Yes I'm trying to find a different spot, kind of frustrating now😂
How do you show the fuel gauge for this Speedometer?
Like the fuel level?
@@samgome01 yes
@@brandensandler3494 i can't really explain that in detail cuz my bike has a mechanical fuel gauge on the tank to show my fuel level but it should just be wire from the fuel sending unit from the gas tank u can hook up with to the gauge
You think that this would work on my kz1000
Should as long as the speedometer cable can hook up to the gauge
How about that thing now. It still working
I'm the guy who owns the bike, even with a dead battery as long as the bike turns on the gauge works
@@samgome01 how do we turn it to mph? It came to me in kph. Thanks
@@samgome01 how’s the glare in the sun?
@@brandensandler3494 not much just that any other color is too dim at times
Any solution my speedometer not work??
Is the speedo cable fine?
@@samgome01 yeah, not turn on
@@WichoTraance like the gauge won't read how fast you're going or the gauge itself isn't turning on
@@samgome01 the gauge itself isn't turning on, nothing.. I check my battery is ok but not turn on
You might have tapped into the wrong wire, check to make sure you have a switch on wire. The wire has to get power when the key is turned on
Hi there, im using same speedo on my underbone, but it does not record odo and trip. Stay 00000. Been using it for 3 days now. Any thoughts?
I presume u got the speedo cable on the gauge
Any luck on this? I have the same problem. Odometer stay at 00000 all the time. I used the speedo cable and screwed it on the back of the gauge. Using it on a 50cc scooter
Dose eny one no how to make it mph

How do u get the rpms with the stock wires from the bike
The signal wire wraps around your spark plug wire. If you see the install instructions for the very basic trail tech hour meter its the same.
@@dapv144 sadly that didn't work for us, we instead hook it on the negative lead on the coil
I attached the RPM wire to ignition coil's positive. And it worked.
It depends how your stock guage works, if it is pulsed it hooks up pretty much the same,
I know bigger Honda's use a voltage rather than a pulse for rpm which is why most Honda's don't work with these universal guages from the standard wire.
@@YasirAli-yj7iewill this make the odometer work? Mine just stays at zero all the time
A basket.......
Someone knows the setting for a 26inch wheel?
Use gps or get someone in a car to read u the mph they doing to adjust it
@@samgome01 Where do i adjust my friend? Is there a button for it?
@@jaxxxxxe on the back of the gauge, read pin comment for instructions
