Installation
The MLX-3000 is a direct-fit replacement and uses the original housing, gaskets and screws.
1. On tank-mount models, begin by removing the dash. All models: remove the two screws on the back of the gauge
housing, then unplug the factory gauge, noting the position of the rubber gaskets; one on the front between the
gauge bezel and housing and (on handlebar-mount applications) one on the back between the housing and the
back plate.
2. Transfer the original gaskets to the MLX-3000; connect the supplied power, indicator and speed harnesses. Also
connect the optional MBM harness if readings for compass, boost or air pressure are desired. Route the MBM
harness under the seat.
3. Secure the new gauge using the original screws.
