The speedo always has one wire that has voltage even with the key off and that'a red memory wire. Key on,yes the speedo has display voltage going to it. It takes the info from the hall effect sensor for speed and mileage and displays it,that is if the sensor hasn't shorted out like so many of them have done.

Alright OPT, I have the 700 back together with a new roller cage and rollers, and a new armature plate. Went for a ride and tried awd several times and it absolutely WILL NOT lock in. I have 5 ounces of demand drive fluid in it and have 10.5 vdc to the coil in diff when energized. I even tested on the bench to make sure coil is magnetizing the plate when energized and it is. HELP!

Jump the awd ground wire in the speedo connector(brown/white) to a brown or better ground outside the connector. This bypasses the speedo for the awd ground path.If you still have problems jump the diff ground wire to a better ground location and see if that helps. People have had to do that on the hub coils also to get them to activate.
