If it's like my 2000-2001 900s (which I expect it is), everything is electronic except the speedo. So it's got a stepper motor inside.

If it's properly connected (eg via the big multi-plug - try cleaning it/checking for correct signals etc), then it's probably defective in some way. Repair or replace. A known working unit would be useful; to swap in to isolate the problem.

They're pretty spendy new - but still available. https://www.ebay.co.uk/p/1462941301. Think I'd want to establish what the problem was first.

Similar-era 900SS and STx ones will likely fit/work, but the face won't match. It's often easier to find a complete console for one of these than the 2000-2002 Monsters eg:

There's a lot of used parts on Flea Bay, but Monster stuff from your specific timeframe is often thin on the ground in comparison to earlier or later.
