09 dragon odometer problems

[treehunter]

I have an 09 dragon everytime I ride the odometer is saying I have gone about 5 times as far as I really have. What could be causing this? Last week we rode about 50 miles but my trip meter said 240 miles. Sled runs great no issues never misses a beat.

Keep an eye on your speedometer too, I'd be willing to bet it's saying your going way faster than you really are also, even at a stop. If this is the case then you need a new speedo pickup sensor. They are cheap and easy to replace located on the bottom of the driveshaft housing under the secondary clutch.

One thing to try is Cleaning the sensor...

Melt flakes some times will send a signal as making a mile.. when only going 1/4 mile...

brake clean and clean rags..

I will try cleaning the sensor if that doesn't work I'll replace it thanks
