Ok, update. I tapped on the screen (more like hit it a few times( and it works ), so something seems to be loose. Anyone have any links to videos on how to get the screen off to tighten things. I'm not sure at all which screws hold what.
TFT Display is dark
So my display has been restarting lately for no reason apparently but it seemed to happen more on bumpy rides which leads me to believe something is loose. Until today it went dark totally, not even the abs light or check engine light, blinker arrows, nothing. Bike works fine. I checked the fuse and it seems fine.
Anyone had this before?

Sometimes I've had this come up actually with my rides. The bike vibrates a lot so I'd say something easily couldve came loose I'll have to check that on mine as well!
It seems like that's the case, I had to slap the screen a few times for it to come on again.Sometimes I've had this come up actually with my rides. The bike vibrates a lot so I'd say something easily couldve came loose I'll have to check that on mine as well!
So this issue came up again; this time I wasn't able to fix it just by banging on the screen. For posterity, I removed and put back fuse #2 and it seemed to have worked.
Dude, you really seem to have the random adventure with that bike of yours. 😂
Mine has been doing this on and off for the past couple of years...
and because of what my occupation is-slash-has-been, my brain keeps telling me I should just pull loose those four back screws and reset the main connector on it, for good measure; i.e. possible micro-oxidation of low voltage non-current bearing connections.
[yeah, like that]
I keep a couple of pins around, measuring .030 and .040 (inch), for checking actual pin tension in the female connector, b4 reconnecting, as well.
if it helps.

Hah! Yeah I know it seems that way. Mostly, it's just me being a noob and posting a lot. The only things that went wrong with my bike are the screen and stator. Everything else is just me learning to do maintenance.Dude, you really seem to have the random adventure with that bike of yours. 😂

But screen seems fine now that I put the fuse in and out so hoping that lasts.
Mine went dark on me once during a ride. What was weird was it was just the backlight. In sunlight I could still make out the image. Came back after a restart and hasn't happened again (yet)
