Trail tech Vapor User Manual
1. POWER OVERVIEW
Vapor operates on the internal 3.0V watch type battery
(#CR2032). If possible, install Vapor to the vehicle’s
electrical system. Wiring to the vehicle enables a brighter
backlight, longer sleep timer, and enables the shift and
temperature indicator LED’s. Vapor is polarity independent
and has safeguards to avoid draining the vehicle battery.
See the POWER CONNECTION section for more info.
2. MOUNT VAPOR:
Vapor is made to be bolted to the vehicle. Use the
included handlebar mounts, or refer to the manual
or www.trailtech.net for other options like the CNC
aluminum protector.

3. VEHICLE SENSORS:
Refer to the sensor installation sections. You should install the
wheel sensor, ignition sensor, engine temperature sensor, and
vehicle power connection.

4. TROUBLESHOOT ERRATIC TACH:
See the TACH IGNITION SENSOR section for more information. If everything is working, but the tach is way off, then there’s too much
“ambient electrical noise”, or the tach sensor is installed incorrectly.
1. Try wrapping the tach sensor around the spark plug wire more or less times.
2. Avoid routing wires alongside other high-voltage wires that may cause noise interference.
3. Some kits include a “resistor tach sensor”. If there’s a lot of tach noise at a certain frequency,
the resistor may filter and smooth it out.
5. INDICATOR LIGHTS:
Vapor has two colored LED lights at the top. They are activated when tach or temperature goes above the thresholds to warn you about
potential problems with your vehicle. The left LED is yellow, the right LED is red. When the tach is over the rev limit the LED will flash, if the
temperature is high then the LED will turn on solid. Set custom thresholds in the DATA SETTING MODE. Set the thresholds to 0 to turn them off.
6. SLEEP MODE:
If Vapor sees no activity (either wheel movement or a button press) for 5 minutes, it will enter sleep mode and only display the clock. Sleep
mode will end when any activity is noticed. During sleep mode Vapor is using the internal battery and will not draw down vehicle power.
