• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

08 TE510 New 15T Counter Sprocket but lost speed odometer?

Just bought a new chain and went from a 14T to 15T counter sprocket and lost my speed odometer and odometer. I wanted to see if the revision would affect the speedometer, so I attached my GPS and noticed the speedometer was registering 40mph, then 20mph then 0mph. It lights up but the speedometer shows "0mph" and the mileage stays the same. Is the pickup for the speedometer off the countershaft sprocket?. Any thoughts?
 
You should be able to follow the speedo cable to see where the pickup is. Usually either mechanical or magnetic on the front axle/wheel. Sounds like the speedo is getting power, so check and clean both ends of the cable. In general, if it's mechanical lube it and if it's electronic check continuity. All else fails RTFM!

:cheers:
 
Thanks NCSteve. I followed the wire from the front wheel near the caliper up to the connector and found one of the two wires broke. Fixed now and works fine.
