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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

2011 Txc449 Kill Switch Not Turning Engine Off

L

Husqvarna
This past week I went for a ride in the rain on my TXC449 and once the bike dried off after riding the kill button on the handlebar will no longer shut off the engine. Everything else works as it should and the bike is completely stock.

I first took apart the start/kill switch assembly and cleaned all contacts and checked for continuity once put back together. This shows the switch is working with no issues. I also checked continuity at as many connections as I could working down the wiring harness and those also showed the switch working properly.

At this point I am not sure exactly what this switch is grounding to kill the engine so I figured I would see if anyone had seen a problem like this before. Any help is really appreciated.
 
Usually this kind of problems are related to the switch, on injections bikes the switch works in a different way, but ckeck the wirring if all cables fine, if ok replace the switch
