I have found, in more than one GTV6 speedo, cold solder joints on the main
circuit board.  Simply resoldering these connections have fixed any speedo
problems in any that I've opened.

I personally believe that whomever supplied the GTV6 speedos had a quality
problem, and suggest that one might open up the gauge and inspect the solder
joints on the circuit board before sending it out for service.
