I’m the new owner of a 2005 Honda Rancher 400 (TRX400FA). I’m a little upset with myself, but apparently I did not notice the odometer did not work. The display shows the miles, but it does not seem to register miles if you ride it. I did ride it at the at the place I purchased it (from an individual at his house), but only around the yard. I rode it far enough to see that the trip meter rolled over. Once I got it home I rode it around my neighborhood what I thought was at least a mile, but the odometer never rolled over. I’m going to try again tomorrow and ride further during the day when its warmer. Are there any known issues with odometer? Anything I could check on. A quick search did not reveal anything. I find it strange that the trip meter works, but not the odometer. This shows the instrument pod is at least receiving a signal. The hour meter does not work, but I knew this. It appears the actual switch underneath the rubber cover for the odometer/hours is broke off. When you press the rubber cover, it just feels like nothing is under the cover. Can I remove the lens cover to take a look under the rubber cover? Could I take it to the Honda dealer and at least have them read the hours and mileage?

Thanks in advance

I would have purchased the ATV regardless. Mechanically, it’s sound and everything works as exptected (automatic shift, ESP, 4wd).
