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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

"Ohms" terminology in the Husky manual help

Apologies for my complete rookie question...but I've never dealt much with electrical issues.

I have an 05 TC 250 with no spark and I'm debating picking up a multimeter and checking some things myself.
When the manual states "resistance between BLACK-RED and RED-WHITE cables: 12,7 +/- 15%" Does this mean
I'm looking for 12,700 ohms +/- 15%? Here in the states we use commas to separate thousands. but the lack of zeros after the seven has me not sure.

Is that what I'm looking for?

Thanks!
 
I would agree. Several European countries use commas and decimal points in the opposite way to how I use them. (being british). Resistances that are in thousands or millions (or thousandths and millionths) of ohms are usually written with the appropriate symbol (eg u(mu), m, k, M) l to indicate the correct value. So 12.7m would be 12.7 milli-ohms or 0.0127 ohms 12.7k would be 12700 ohms.

So 12,7 ohms written in the manual most likely means 12-point-7 ohms.
 
Makes sense Padowan...thanks. I guess if I get a multimeter that has auto ranging that will help as well, so I don't have to guess what to set the selector dial to.
 
Italians 12,7 is US 12.7 Ohms +/- 15% which happens to be a fairly loose tolerance from what we usually see in our aerospace world.
