Gauges on RTL

[Buckeye Bleau]

Somewhere in the forum there was a conversation regarding the analog guages being replaced and using the digital versions on the center display.

i got excited for the possibility of using the slots for other purposes, but discovered my center group does not have the temp and fuel graphs.

Is this because I have a 2013 RTL or do I need a software update that will put them on the screen?

thank you in advance for all the learned experience that I get on this page!

I have a 2013 rtl , just unplug gauges. Then gas and heat bars will appear.

You have to disconnect the gauges and your digital will come up you could add a voltage gauge or anything else
That's the way I have mine

It might take a momentary "Leap of Faith" , but everything will work out fine...

BOTH gauges need to be disconnected. You will find a single "free" wire and a plastic cluster of three wires for each gauge. Disconnect all of these on each gauge.

The gauges on the 2014 are rock solid and I have not disconnected them. I disconnected the gauges on the 2010, and 2011 and went to digital. An easy fix for the non-mechanical.

AWESOME, I would love to put in a voltage guage in the round analogue holes, could I ask where to acquire such an item?

Getting excited about this now.

There is a video on here by Bob(finless) on how to do this and the gauge he ordered. I bought the same gauge, though I think that is not available now but another similar is. I have enjoyed mine,but I was informed by my dealer when he changed my battery that it reads 1/2 volt low. Don't know if this is true of others or not but something to be aware of.

I got mine from Cruzer Joe.

Easiest and most popular

Dual USB Plug & Volt Meter, from there, the sky is the limit

Will this also work for 2015 RTL ?

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1 This is a great looking voltmeter which we have installed along with this USB https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1. For the USB you also need the black ring from JT's Machine Shop (spyderlovers sponsor)

Yes

[Cruzr Joe]

go with a digital voltmeter rather than the analog one, it is more accurate and looks better.

Bob have you checked your volt meter lately? When I had my battery warrantied the dealer said mine was reading .5 volts low.
