We received another Yamaha FZ V3 meter repair case today at Gadi Garage, and this one was completely faded.
The customer walked into our shop holding the speedometer and said:
“Bro, the screen is fully white. I cannot see anything at all.”
One look at the meter and we knew this was a severe sun fade issue.
The entire display had turned pale, dull, and almost blank in daylight.
The motorcycle was running normally, but the meter looked dead.

Customer’s Problem – Zero Visibility
The customer explained that the display had been fading slowly for weeks until it finally reached a point where:
- No numbers were visible
- RPM bar disappeared
- Fuel bar was missing
- Backlight was too weak
- Meter was unreadable in both day and night
He was ready to buy a new meter but decided to try Gadi Garage after watching our FZ V3 restoration videos.
Inspection at Gadi Garage
After opening the unit, we found:
- Heavy sun damage
- Display completely faded
- Heat-related dullness and dust
- Very weak screen response
Fortunately, the motherboard was still healthy.
This meant the meter was fully repairable.
How We Restored the FZ V3 Sun-Faded Meter
1. Safe Opening of the Meter
Heat makes FZ V3 meters tighten up over time.
We opened it carefully without damaging clips or the housing.
2. Cleaning Internal Components
Heat and dust had built up inside.
We cleaned the internal layers to improve display performance.
3. Replaced the Old Display with a New One
The original display was completely sun-burnt and beyond recovery.
So we fitted a brand-new FZ V3 display panel, giving the meter:
- Fresh clarity
- Sharp numbers
- Strong brightness
- Perfect visibility
This was the most important step, because the old display could not be restored.
4. Stabilizing Power and Backlight
Long-term heat affects internal points.
We strengthened these connections to ensure stable and uniform brightness.
5. Final Assembly and Testing
After installing the new display and completing all corrections, we reassembled the meter and tested:
- Backlight
- Speed reading
- RPM
- Fuel bar
- Warning lights
Everything worked perfectly.
Customer’s Reaction
When we powered ON the restored meter, the customer said:
“Bro, this is unbelievable. I thought the meter was finished.”
He was relieved that he didn’t have to spend a large amount on a new unit.
Final Result – FZ V3 Meter Restored to Perfect Condition
After service:
- Display became clear
- Daytime visibility was excellent
- Screen looked fresh and bright
- Meter functioned like new
- Customer left fully satisfied
