Vfr 800 odometer issue

[silverbullet132]

When I turn the ignition on, the odometer displays 188888 or something similar, then goes completely blank after the bike finishes 'starting up'. Running or not running makes no difference with it. Trip meter works, speedometer works, tachometer works. Back of the dash has no burnt connectors or wiring. What should I look at next?

How well does it start? Turns over nice and fast?

My friends viffer was doing something similar, it was a bad ground wire from the dash cluster. When trying to start it sometimes it would turn over once or twice, "hiccup", then turn over a few more times then start.

Yeah, starts up nice and quick. No hiccups or anything like that.
