Hey guys... just got home from a wild week up in Revelstoke.

What a difference there is from when I was there around Christmas, to now at new years.
Tracked out all the way to 4+ feet of powder.... nuts.

Anyways, as I started my sled first thing Tuesday morning, the guage would only say LCD, and then below it, was "+ ||||||||| -"

Im assuming it's a dim or brightness setting for the digital part of the guage?

It's not a snopro, so just the normal tack/speedo, and the needle wouldn't move either.

Ive tried pushing both buttons, holding each button, and holding both buttons at the same time, and it doesn't change a thing.

Any suggestions? Or should I just try for a new one, as in the thing is shot?
Snow was too good/TOO MANY ROOKIES WERE STUCK TO REALLY CHECK IT OUT, so Im stumped.

Those gauges are terribleI'm on my 4th on in my m1000. My advice is take it back and have it changed.

There is a service bulletin on this issue. Moisture is getting into the gauge causing it to malfunction. I think a new lens or seal is put on.
