Tac1968 1 Posted May 26, 2021 I just recently bought a 2000 Foreman trx450es that the speedo doesn't work at all, nothing, can you send me your contact info so I can get it sent to you to be repaired? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AKATV 822 Posted May 27, 2021 Sure no problem It would help to see a picture or two of the display Will it illuminate when you turn headlights on? Contact information sent Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tac1968 1 Posted May 27, 2021 To be honest, it'll be about a week before I can answer, I just bought it, but my brother went and picked it up for me as I travel for work. In the ad it said it was not working, I'll make some pics when I get home, I haven't even seen the bike in person myself, lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bcon4 0 Posted July 21, 2021 Hey folks sorry for bringing an old thread back to life but this was the most helpful info I’ve got on my problem. So I have a 2004 Honda foreman es I’ve done a full rebuild on it and the last thing for me to fix is the display. I’ve already removed the polarization film thinking it was just sun damaged but in doing so found out the screen has a crack through it. I can still see the display when it’s at the right angle and I does work when it’s hooked up. My main question is will it work with new film and if not is there any way to buy just the internal glass display? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AKATV 822 Posted July 21, 2021 Hi and welcome to the forum! Unfortunately with the crack your LCD will not function properly and you cannot order just that part I had a few parts units a couple months ago but I’m fresh out of glass for the Foreman 450ES I would check on eBay or Powersportsnation and see if you can buy a nonworking one to salvage the glass from I’ll keep an eye out and see if I can find one for you as well AKATV Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alberta Will 0 Posted July 21, 2021 I do have a Speedo from a 450es (I believe 2003) that I cannot use. I purchased it for my S I hopes of replacing the glass but there not interchangeable. I think the board is bad but the glass looks in great shape. I paid $150 for it would like to see that out of it. PM me for pics and shipping quote etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bcon4 0 Posted July 21, 2021 Thank you. If you can find one let me know I’ll gladly pay you for it. Should I still get new film if you or I can find one? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AKATV 822 Posted July 21, 2021 I generally find that most of the used ones out there need to polarization films replaced or are in bad shape but if you keep an eye out you can generally find a good parts unit for around $40 dollars or so Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Clarion 0 Posted August 12, 2021 @AKATVdo you happen to have a picture showing the capacitor ratings on the lower left of the display for a 2003 Rubicon 500? My display was working then quit. I pulled the dash apart and found the 3 capacitors in the bottom of the case. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AKATV 822 Posted August 12, 2021 I can double check the ratings for you and give it to you tomorrow it’s pretty common for those capacitors to vibrate loose due to poor solder quality and vibration If you have an iron you can just solder those same capacitors back in place 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
