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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

2009 TE450 Intermittent Electrical Issue: Do I have (4) bad relays?

Hi All,

When switched on the bike doesn't prime the fuel pump and says fail on dash. The power relay (38 on diagram) has 12v going in but minimal voltage out - sometimes. I was able to get it to show 12v out to the G/R wire that feeds the pump, the dash also showed the normal sel1 instead of fail, after unplugging everything on G/R circuit and then reassembling. Both switch wires also had 12v. The bike started and idled until I reved it and it died. I think the vibration of the rev made the issue return. I was not able to get it to prime after that. I followed power from the battery to the power relay, so the starter relay and power fuses are good. When I omit the relay with a jump wire it spins the pump and the bike runs. When I jump the switch the G/R wire still only gets minimal power, so I don't think its a switch issue.

Sounds like a bad relay right? Well I have 3 on the bike and when I swap them around all have the exact same G/R wire voltage. I even bought a cheap one on amazon b/c it was available next day. It shows the exact same voltage output. Could there be something going on with the G/R circuit that is causing this? I can't find continuity with ground on the g/r wire. When I jump the relay I have 12v throughout the G/R circuit.

Do I have 4 bad relays? Thanks
