2011 nomad shift indicator

[jp58]

My shift indicator is lazy. When shifting up Thur gears will indicate last gear number like when in 5 says 4 and same downshifting when in 4 still says 5. It does this in all gears but not all the time. Very sporadic. If i tap the shifter again lightly it will change. Dealer says leave bike for a week or two. Unless they see it do it they wont fix it. BTW only does it after it is good and warmed up. I see no adjustment in my repair manual. Just can check resistance. Anyone else have this issue. Any thoughts.

My 09 Voyager does it sometimes also. Has since I bought it.

My bike has done the same, and I've had it in to have the sending unit replaced twice. The new sending units worked fine for a while but eventually they failed too and I'm needing a third replacement.

My 09 does it. It is like a delay. I shift up, look down and it indicates the lower gear. Then in a second or two it shows the real gear.

My 2010 does the same thing pererdarby described.

I noticed that when mine does that If I touch the shifter just a tad it corrects.

My 2011 Voyager does the same - Thanks for bringing this up I thought I was the only one . . .

Someone on an earlier post on the old site suggest it's where the sensor pickup contacts the shifter and can be adjusted accordingly. Don't know as I rarely have the problem and haven't attempted to adjust it!
