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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

The guy who previously owned my husky wr250 06 cut out every non essential electrical system in the bike and I've been rewiring the lights ect to get it road legal again. Unfortunately I've done something to the ignition system as it isn't sparking anymore, and I fear that I've shorted my 12v tester battery (motorbike ) onto the frame accidentally.

What parts have I killed? I'm picturing cdi/coil? The spark plug is fine, also tested the lead and it's all good.

Thanks!
 
start with the basics
unplug everything and see if you get any power from the mag ignition lead
sometimes it's as stupid as a kill button gone bad
 
Ok great. I've got through the wiring harness with my trusty multimeter and I can see that the CD I is producing no current. The current is good until here. Is replacing this a good start?

so you have power coming from the ignition side, not the lighting side?
 
Power from the generator to the cdi when I kick it, but nothing on the cdi output. Tells me it might be cactus!
