Replacing the Instrument Cluster Battery on a Husqvarna 701

Model: Husqvarna 701 Sm
Part: Instrument cluster

Video tutorial

Many people are unaware that there is a battery inside the instrument cluster of the Husqvarna 701 that powers it. To access this battery, first remove the front headlight by unscrewing the two screws that secure it at the top (these are T20 Torx screws).

Extract the headlight and disconnect its connector to remove it completely.

At this point, it will be straightforward to extract the instrument cluster housing where the battery is fixed, disconnect it, and replace the battery, as clearly demonstrated in the video. Once done, proceed in reverse until fully reassembled.

How to Change the Engine Oil on the KTM EXC-F 350?

To change the engine oil on the KTM EXC-F 350, loosen the drain plug located at the central lower part of the oil sump: once this plug is removed, all the used oil can flow into a suitably positioned container. When all the oil has drained out, remove the oil filter from its housing and replace it with a new one: this filter is located on the left side of the bike. On the opposite side, there will be a breather through which to insert the necessary amount of new engine oil.
