jeepwm69 7,232 Posted September 13 Hey @AKATV, how many meters you think you've fixed since you started doing it? It's cool as ! that you're keeping so many older machines serviceable and in good shape, especially given the increasing rarity of working displays. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AKATV 746 Posted September 13 Hi Jeep! It’s been probably been 12 years I think or more since I’ve been repairing them -not sure on the number -I seem to get one or two a month-ish Don’t get me wrong, I have a whole LOT of people contacting me, a lot of the times I’m able to just walk them through repairs by troubleshooting on text/ phone to find out they have a burned harness pins, blown fuses or electrical issues etc. The majority of the repairs that I DO complete seem to be the UV/ Sun damage to the displays or sourcing replacement circuit cards for water damaged units and various discontinued parts or reprogramming dropped or corrupted data I will tell you for sure that availability, even for rebuildable parts units, is quickly drying up which is unfortunate. I have a great fondness for the older Honda machines and I think, at least in my opinion, they seem to be built better or have a better build quality if you know what I mean. Thats another reason this forum is so awesome, helping everybody keep these older Honda machines on the road. I really don’t think there’s a better knowledge base out there than ours atvhonda.com rocks! whoop! whoop! 😀 -AKATV 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeepwm69 7,232 Posted September 13 I'm just going on the number of people coming here looking for you. I know I refer quite a few here from bookface who are looking for meters, and I point out that they can be repaired and tell them to come here and find you. I like the fact that even as these older machines have parts availability dry up, the components can be repaired instead of just giving up on them. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
