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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Hey riders, after a couple days riding Death Valley (go there) I checked the valves on my 630, all on upper end of specs with 15000km.

Drained the coolant, flushed cooling loop and added new coolant, put it back together and no starter action.

In the past a faulty coolant temperature sensor has been the bane of 630s so I'm searching for a new sensor (I'm thinking that messin' with the coolant messed with the sensor). None of these are currently available in Canada, no time frame for being available, Ebay vendor will not ship to Canada.

Anyone have a lead on where parts for my "red haired bastard step child" might be found and are pieces becoming "un obtainium"?

Thanks in advance.

Bike should still start with bad temp sensor. Cooling fan will run continuously and may get error code but will still run. Sensor part # 8000 A6736. I have had good luck ordering parts via local KTM dealer. Also, sales@evolutionbike.it are a source for SWM parts and many of the parts for SWM Superdual are interchangeable with TE 630. Also https://www.halls-cycles.com/ are a source for Husky parts.
 
Hey Willie, thanks for your input.

The part # I'm looking for is: H8000H3649 which is different from the # you mentioned which is also a temp sensor, I'm not sure of the difference.

I've been communicating with italhusky.com who seem to be able to supply and ship to our shared country, time will tell.

Hope riding is great in NS, here in Victoria it sure is.

There appears to be a couple of part #s for the temperature sensors. H8000H3649 appears to be direct connected and
8000 A6736 appears to have a connection lead.
Riding is nice here but no mountains like up your way.
Good luck on your temp sensor hunt. Are you sure that's the problem?
I just checked my spare 3649 and it reads 3.3K ohms @ 15degC.
 
Over here in Vancouver I have used International Motorsports with good luck, call them up with part number and the part arrives in less than a week. But that was a few years ago.

If you had the tank off to do the coolant and such maybe wiring got disturbed and causing problem. Not 100% sure but even with a bad sensor you should still get the starter to turn. Kill switch on the bars? I had all the bar switches fill with dust and cause all kinds of non working issues, I had to disassemble and clean the switches.

Good luck getting it going, riding season is coming or here for that matter.

So, after being frustrated and putting the 630 in the dog house for a couple of days, I got back to looking at it again. Went through as many electrical connections I could find, fueled it, hit the start button aaaaand, it starts.

So more than likely, as Kirk suggests, an open circuit somewhere.

This whole exercise has shown me a couple of things....

- Some parts for this are getting hard to source in Canada, shipping from Europe will probably be the future.

- International MS had the best phone service of the 3 BC dealers I called.

- I still love this bike and I think it's worthwhile to keep it going.

Let's ride.
