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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Electrical Problem Te450 2004

hi guy's. having some trouble with the wiring of my husky te450 2004. I bought the bike as a non-runner. battery was dead en wiring was a total disaster. I cleaned the carb, jumpstarted it, and it fired right up.

when i installed a new battery i noticed it arced, and continued to arc. So i thought i had a short circuit somewhere. I stripped all the wiring, but the short remaind.

i unpluged the white and yellow wire, coming from the coil, and found out i had 12volts coming from the regulator. So i thought the regulator was faulty. I swapped it out for anotherone, and still have 12volts going in to the coil. Do these regulators not have a diode in them?

Normally current isn't supposed to flow from the battery, through the regulator into the coil? What am i missing here?
