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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

250-500cc One more enduro wiring post -- desperate for help.

This is for my 2009 WR 250. I'm no good at this electrical stuff. So any help is appreciated. I've read all the threads about wiring this thing. But I really need to see it in order for it to sink in. I decided to post this picture with what I've figured out, and what I need help with. I've numbered the connectors I need help with so it is easier to refer to them. Please help me out I'm clueless.

EDIT: Sorry about the size of this picture. It is much bigger on my computer. If you want to see it in full size, I've posted it to google drive here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8p2nZHc47ASMjNxX2pSLU8xMFU/view?usp=sharing
 
I think that may be some sort of condenser. Yes both ring terminals will go to a ground. I never did figure out exactly how everything was supposed to plug in on mine and since I didn't use the factory computer, I made my own harness. But, anything yellow will plug into the yellow wire coming from the stator.
 
Oh, that's a condenser or capacitor. The yellow from the stator has a female spade connector that connects to the male spade on the yellow wire to the regulator. So I guess the condenser should be in front of all the lights? So then #4 from the condenser would go to the female from the stator. Then #2 from the condenser would go to #5 on the harness. Then #3 on the harness would go to the (now free) male spade that is on the regulator's yellow wire. Maybe??
 
So a call to the all mighty Hall's cleared this up once and for all. He said the "thing" is a regulator. I don't know why there is another one since that big box with fins bolted to the frame is also a regulator. But, he also said it doesn't matter where in the system it is incorporated. So I'm going stator -> new regulator thing -> new wiring harness -> old regulator. So that means the stator yellow goes to #4. #2 goes to #5. #3 goes to the old regulator.
 
Show us your install when you've got it done. Would be good reference if I retire mine from racing and put lights on it for Trail rides.
 
Will do, and I'll try to remember this thread as I go from AC to DC. I'm going to get the AC lights going first for a little more head-on visibility on our trails. Then I'm going to add LEDs before the fall so I can ride longer.
 
Sorry to hijack your thread but since were talking wiring here, Im having a brain freeze and cant get my rear brake light to work. Hope you guys can help me wire it up. 2008 WR250, headlight and tail light are on when engine running only, (no switch at bars) it has yellow and blue wires coming from the front of the harness. Bike has a new Tusk brake switch installed, (brakes bled), and replaced the small stock led rear with a new rear dual sport LED off ebay with the 3 wires-(Red-black-green). Its a simple setup, just not working for me. Maybe its a defective light or switch. The light is on with bike running, but not "braking" when the pedals down. Any ideas? Please see pics and thanks for your time.

At a guess I'd say black is earth, red is stop and green is tail. Test this (and the light) by applying power directly to the wires. Id use a 9v battery as the power source.
