• Husqvarna Motorcycles Made In Sweden - About 1988 and older

  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!

2000 TC610 Regulator/Rectifier Installation Help.

davisMFG

Husqvarna
Fellas,

I have a 2000 Husqvarna TC610. It has a yellow lead coming off the stator so I bought a Trail Tech regulator / rectifier.

The instructions say I can use this item with or without a battery--I plan on using it without. Which leads me to my question:

The unit has 5 wires: 2 yellow, 2 red, and 1 black.

Do I wire ONE yellow wire to the yellow lead off the stator, then connect one black and one red wire to the headlight?

Or, do I connect BOTH yellow wires from the unit to the yellow stator lead, then the black and red wires to the headlight?

I would try the yellow wires one at a time connected to the stator yellow, with the black wire grounded to the frame, and see if you get a regulated 12V AC at the connection or at the red/yellow wire.

I just ordered the Trail tech regulator with 2 wires today so we'll see how that works out on my 04 WR250. Should be the same thing 1 yellow from the stator.

So, I connected the reg/rec last night and had my brother check the electrical output and it appears to be about half of what it should be (~20W, 6 amps, I think).

It appears I'm only getting one leg off the stator, but the stator only has 1 yellow lead. There IS a plug next to the yellow wire that has 4 other wires--none of them yellow--but maybe one of those is the other leg off the stator.

Any ideas?
 
You should be measuring AC voltage not power (W) or current (I). Measure the stator voltage (unregulated) at the yellow wire without the trailtech connected. You should see AC voltage go up and down with the throttle (~20V - 50V). If you do,the stator should be good. If you just trying to run a headlight and taillight with no battery maybe just exchange the Reg/REC for the trailtech universal AC voltage regulator. Simple - 2 wires, one to stator and one to frame ground.

I noticed this note on the website for the one you have: *Trail Tech's Regulator/Rectifier will not work with most factory stators. Stator must have a floated ground, modifications to stator may be required.
