  • Pulsar ug3 150cc dashboard problem

    guys ., some fellow Banged hard on my dashboard when i kept in a common parking area , and the top layer plate got a crack , now for past 3 days it was raining in my place , and everyday morning i see water droplets get accumulated inside it.. and only when the water dries i can see the speed ... otherwise its not visible... but once the water gets dried , everything is normal ...

    Now , is there any way to replace the top layer alone or should i change the entire dashboard (which i can't) ??

    For now put cello tape @ cracks which helped a bit , not entirely ....Its very embarrasing to cover the entire dash with a plastic cover , spoiling the look of the bike when its parked .....

    Also my friend advised me to put a scratch gaurd (as we put for mobile phone displays) , well will that stop the water to enter into the dash ??


    Pls help ...

      Check up with any bajaj service center. You should get the casing seperately without having to change the entire unit. For now cover it with a plastic bag, use tape where required. Since the speedo is working and its raining it would be wise not to think too much about looks...

          Try the local scrap yards..you may get the whole speedo at dirt cheap price.

                i don't think bajaj sells just the outer shell of the digital speedo console.


                so ur options are...

                - replace it now

                - cover it up till the rains stop (u won't have issues with water/moisture except when u wash the bike.)

                - buy a scrapped/faulty speedo console and replace the outer shell.

                .

                      Dashboard Problem on pulsar 150 ug3

                      Mine is a 150cc Pulsar Ug3 model
                      My digital speedometer is not working.
                      The RPM is working.
                      Fuel indicator and the Speed Indicator is not working and hence trip meters are also not working.

                      Suddenly when I observe while riding, I am able to see that the speedometer working and displaying speeds like 94,124, 66 very random numbers and starts displaying normal speed (ie the exact speed that i go). and gradually shows 0 (that's not working condition.)

                      What to do now ?? somebody help

                            if u've replaced the outer casing of the speedo and u still have a problems...

                            then i'd say that the water had something to do with the speedo displaying random speeds... usually i'd say check the speedo sensor or the cable but it could be water damage.

                              Problem solved...

                              Ya , the water has definitely done its damage .....

                              Eg., For 60 it shows 68 kmph.... the 0 is being shown as 8 sometimes ...

                              Anyway now its minimized to an extent though not completely...

                              Total damages :

                              Cluster cover : 115/-
                              Sensor cable : 131/-
                              Service : 50/-

                              Done at my area svc .. though i did not believe them replacing the parts , i went and brought Cluster cover and Sensor cable individually..

                              Bad time !!! Anyway better for now....
