Oil Level and Temperature Dipstick with Lighted LCD Readout-63065-09
Part Number 63065-09
I understand that a few people have these on their rides... and a few have indicated that they have had issues. I purchased one after seeing them on a few bikes at Edenhope back in Nov 2010... it was initially great but only lasted around a year and a half. Care is required when removing to access the oil filler and it may well have been a ham fisted aprentice that stuffed it, andyway now if only provides temp... similar to what a number of other owners have identified.
Anyway, for the price it's the biggest piece of electronic crap I've purchased for the bike to date...
Instructions are here... http://www.harley-davidson.com/app-content/service/isheets/-J04675.PDF
1. I cannot find any damaged wires
2. I have seen it display temperatures above 140degC as well as the level and the level was not scrolling
• If the oil level indicates as in display 9 (animated level bars, followed by an "888 NO SENSOR" code), the wires inside the dipstick may be disconnected or damaged. Refer to Replacing the Battery later in these instructions to separate the dipstick upper and lower assemblies. • If the small plug next to the battery has become dislodged from the receptacle, plug it in. If a visible wire is damaged, a repair can be attempted. If no damage is visible, the dipstick is damaged internally and should be replaced.
NOTE To help prevent failure of the electronics inside, the dipstick will not measure oil level when the oil temperature exceeds 280 °F (138 °C). Scrolling level will display, along with the temperature (Figure 1, display 16), up to a maximum reading of 310 °F (155 °C). The high temperature will not damage the dipstick. Level measurement readings will resume when the oil temperature drops below 280 °F (138 °C).
I have one of these units and no dramas yet. Works fine so far after 13 months. I will be watching it more closely now. Thanks Ho.
Mine is H63030-09 same but different.
I Had one of these as well my first one last just under 12mths as oil start apearing in the screen so the steaker replaced it with another one& that is most likely still going if I put a new battery in it as this also had oil in the screen as well after awhile so it back to just pulling out the stick to check the oil & using the oil temp gauge i have on the bike. But the reading on the dip stick was always with 5 degrees to my gauge.
