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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

2013 Te449 Solenoid Clicking

BAR

Husqvarna
AA Class
I rode my bike a week ago and it ran awesome. I keep my bike always plugged into a "smart" battery charger. Yesterday, I went to install some rear turn signals and after taking off the seat I noticed that the battery was hot so I unplugged the charger. I decided to start the bike and after pushing the E-start, it tried to start and then went to the solenoid clicking. That's all it will do now and nothing will light up including the dash, lights, etc. Fuses are good. When I checked the battery with the voltmeter it was reading 20v which doesn't make sense. I need help figuring this out so I don't need to bring it into a shop if possible. Thanks for any and all help on this!!!
 
Well luckily it turned out to be the battery. Was reading 13.4v but putting out no amps - defective. Was a great time to go with a lithium!
